Answer:

A  ≈ 35.3 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the radius CB using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

CB² + AB² = AC²

CB² + 6² = 9²

CB² + 36 = 81 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

CB²  = 45 = r²

Then area of quarter circle is

A = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × πr² = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] × π × 45 ≈ 35.3
