The area of the shaded portion is (16π - 32) in².

What is the area of the circle?

The radius of a circle is the distance from the center of a circle to any point on the circle. If you place two radii end-to-end in a circle, you would have the same length as one diameter.

In the picture attached, the circle is shown.

The area of one-quarter of the circle is given by;

[tex]\rm = \dfrac{1}{4}\times Area\ of \ a \ circle \\\\= \dfrac{1}{4}\times \pi \times radius^2\\\\ = \dfrac{1}{4}\times \pi \times 8^2\\\\= 16\pi \ in^2[/tex]

The area of the triangle is given by;

[tex]\rm = \dfrac{1}{2} \times base\times height \\\\= \dfrac{1}{2} \times 8\times 8 = 32 \ in^2[/tex]

The area of the shaded portion is;

Shaded area = Area of one-quarter of the circle - Area of the triangle = (16π - 32) in²

Hence, the area of the shaded portion is (16π - 32) in².
