正确答案 · Correct Answer
B
解析 · Solution
Solution 1
The area in the rectangle but outside the circles is the area of the rectangle minus the area of all three of the quarter circles in the rectangle. The area of the rectangle is . The area of all 3 quarter circles is + + . Therefore the area in the rectangle but outside the circles is . is approximately and substituting that in will give .5 (People who don't know how to do the area of a sector) Instead of calculating the area of the rectangle minus the area of the 3 quarter-circles that are in it, we calculate the area of the 3 circles, not just the quarter-circles. is equal to , squared is equal to , and is equal to 1. It is obvious that they are all quarter-circles, as mentioned in solution 1, so you divide each of them by 4. So they become , , and . Adding them together, it's . Now you can calculate , and you'll get around 4.00000000000001, which is closest to
