PROBLEM
48. ANS: a) The area of the shaded region is the area of the circle minus the area of the square.
Use the formula for the area of a circle.A = πr2
A = π(11x)2
A = 121πx 2
To determine the area of the square, first determine the side length, s, of the square.Use the Pythagorean Theorem in right ∆ABC.s2 = AB2 + BC2
s2 = (11x)2 + (11x)2
s2 = 121x2 + 121x 2
s2 = 242x2
s = 242x 2
Use the formula for the area, A, of a square.A = s2
A = 242x 2�

50. ANS: 81y 2 + 36y + 4
Check for common factors; there are none.
The product of the coefficient of y2 and the constant term is: 81(4) = 324
Write 36y as the sum of two terms whose coefficients have a product of 324.
Factors of 324 Sum of Factors
1, 324 1 + 324 = 325
2, 162 2 + 162 = 164
3, 108 3 + 108 = 111
4, 81 4 + 81 = 85
6, 54 6 + 54 = 60
9, 36 9 + 36 = 45
12, 27 12 + 27 = 39
18, 18 18 + 18 = 36
The two coefficients are 18 and 18, so write the trinomial 81y 2 + 36y + 4 as 81y 2 + 18y + 18y + 4.
Remove a common factor from the 1st pair of terms, and from the 2nd pair of terms.81y 2 + 18y + 18y + 4 = 9y(9y + 2) + 2(9y + 2)
Each product has a common binomial factor.81y 2 + 18y + 18y + 4 = (9y + 2)(9y + 2)
So, 81y 2 + 36y + 4 = (9y + 2)(9y + 2)

51. ANS: The length of the rectangle that remains is:14x − (x − 8) = 14x − x + 8 = 13x + 8
The width of the rectangle that remains is: y − (x − 8) = y − x + 8
Use the formula for the area, A, of a rectangle:A = lw
A = (13x + 8)(y − x + 8)
A = 13x(y) + 13x(−x) + 13x(8) + 8(y) + 8(−x) + 8(8)
A = 13xy − 13x 2 + 104x + 8y − 8x + 64
A = 13xy − 13x 2 + 96x + 8y + 64
The expression 13xy − 13x 2 + 96x + 8y + 64 represents the area of the rectangle that remains.
