area of brick region =5323.0 " m"^2=5323.0 m2

Explanation:

area of rectangle ABCD=A_R=153xx53=8109.00 " m"^2ABCD=AR=153×53=8109.00 m2
let O and rOandr be the center and the radius of arc EFGEFG, respectively.
r=OH+HF=OH+35r=OH+HF=OH+35
DeltaOHE is a right triangle, by Pythagorean theorem, we get:
r^2-OH^2=EH^2
=> (OH+35)^2-OH^2=55.5^2
=> OH^2+70*OH+35^2-OH^2=55^2
=> 70*OH+1225=3080.25
=> OH=(3080.25-1225)/70~~26.50 m
=> r=OH+35=26.5+35=61.50 m
let angleEOH=alpha
rsinalpha=55.5, => alpha=sin^-1((55.5)/(61.50))=64.4805^@
=> 2alpha=2*64.4805=128.961^@
area of segment EFG=A_S=pi*r^2*(2alpha)/(360)-1/2*r^2*sin2alpha
=r^2(pi*(2alpha)/360-(sin2alpha)/2)
=61.5^2(pi*128.961/360-sin128.961/2)
=2786.0 " m"^2
Hence, area of the brick region A_B=A_R-A_S
=8109.0-2786.0=5323.0 " m"^2
