dS - she need to build the
walk.
dS=S1-S2
S1:
2*pi*r=l
(50/360)*2*pi*r=25
r=90/pi
S1=(pi*R^2*50)/360=1125/pi=358 (approximately)
S2:
R=r+3=90/pi +3
S2=(pi*R^2*50)/360=437 (approximately)
S1-S2=78,9 (approximately)

Bullshit. They are looking for AREA... not ARC LENGTH (if that's indeed what 'Expert' did). Not going to look over such rubbish. REAL answer = 78.93 square feet!
