Sure The pose is square with the side S is
- 00:09
inscribed in a circle You suppose that area in terms
- 00:13
of s outside of the square but inside of the
- 00:15
circle is given by the following graph What is the

- 00:18
approximate area of this region If the square has a
- 00:22
perimeter of thirty two and here the potential answers So
- 00:25
before we spoil the ending hit pause and try this
- 00:28
one yourself Okay this is a multi party way Have
- 00:33
to remember the formula for the perimeter of a square
- 00:36
And then we have to be able to read a
- 00:37
graph with this scurvy line thing So first off a
- 00:41
square got its name because it means that all four
- 00:44
sides are equal were socialists two sides good four sides
- 00:49
better So if the total perimeter is thirty two and
- 00:52
there are four sides what's thirty two divided by four
- 00:55
in california that's right Each side has a length of
- 00:58
eight And who Curveball Note that one of the answers
- 01:02
here is eight Beware that h is on ly the
- 01:05
distance of one side of the squares and knowing that
- 01:08
fact is a big part of the question Like if
- 01:10
we didn't know how to make that initial fancy drawing
- 01:13
in the beginning we'd be in real trouble Oh now
- 01:17
we have to apply that eight unit distance to the
- 01:20
graph and if we start here and move straight upwards
- 01:23
until we hit the curve way hit it here and
- 01:26
come straight left to hit the y axis here So
- 01:29
where is here Well note that this line is halfway
- 01:33
between forty eight zero so it's gotta be twenty four
- 01:36
in our line hits halfway between the twenty four forty
- 01:38
eight so that line hits thirty six answers See don't
- 01:43
worry we won't forget to invite you to the bris 00:01:47.714 --> [endTime] Two sides Good four side's better
