In the figure, the area of the shaded region is 224π cm^2.
What is the value of x?

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

x is the radius of the inner white circle

The area of the whole circle is

A = πr² = π × 18² = 324π cm²

The area of the shaded region = 224π cm²

Then the area of the white circle = 324π - 224π = 100π

Area of white circle = πx² = 100π ( divide both sides by π )

x² = 100 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = = 10

question:

could we have options?
