A security light mounted above a house illuminates part of a circular region defined by
and
.
The area of a sector of a circle with radius
and central angle
is
.
Where
is measured in radians.
The total area of the region is approximately
.
The area of the region described is the difference of the areas of two sectors.
Both sectors have an angle measure of
.
By solving
,we get
.
The larger radius is
and the smaller radius is
.
Calculate the
by substituting the values of
and
.
The total area of the region is approximately
.
Substitute this value in for
in the equation above and solve for
.

Since
is not in negative, it is not considered.
Therefore, the value of
is
.
The value of
is
.
