Answer:
178.98 ft2
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the circular path alone is equal to subtract the area of the circular garden from the area of the complete circle (circular garden plus circular path)
so
[tex]A=\pi (r_2^2-r_1^2)[/tex]
where
[tex]r_1=8\ ft[/tex] ---> radius of circular garden
[tex]r_2=8+3=11\ ft[/tex] ----> radius of the circular garden plus radius circular path
substitute
[tex]A=3.14 (11^2-8^2)=178.98\ ft^2[/tex]
