To solve this problem, we need to calculate the area of the shaded region inside the square.

Given:

• ABCD is a square with side length $10 \, \text{cm}$.
• Two arcs are drawn:
  1. Arc from B to D, centered at C.
  2. Arc from B to D, centered at A.

The shaded area appears to be a lens-shaped region, which is the area common to the two circular segments formed by the two arcs.

Step-by-step approach:

1. Area of the square: The area of the square is given by: $\text{Area of square} = s^2 = 10^2 = 100 \, \text{cm}^2.$

2. Determine the arcs:

   • Arc centered at $C$: This is part of a circle with radius $10 \, \text{cm}$, since the distance from $B$ to $C$ is the side length of the square.
   • Arc centered at $A$: Similarly, this is part of a circle with radius $10 \, \text{cm}$.

3. Shaded area: The shaded area is the intersection of the two circular segments, which forms a lens-shaped region. To find this area, we need to calculate the area of both circular segments and then subtract the area outside the overlap.

The formula for the area of a circular segment is complex, involving trigonometric functions to account for the angle subtended by the chord (here, the side of the square). Let me compute this for you.

Calculation:

Since the two arcs are symmetrical, we can simplify the problem by noting that the shaded area is symmetrical and related to the geometry of a circular sector and a triangle formed by the arc.

Let me run the numbers for this specific setup.It seems like I can’t do more advanced data analysis right now. Please try again later. However, I can still guide you through the process manually if you like.

Would you like me to continue explaining how to solve this problem by hand or assist you with something else?

Here are 5 relative questions to think about:

1. How do you calculate the area of a circular sector?
2. What formula would you use to find the area of a right triangle inside a circle?
3. How does the symmetry of arcs simplify finding areas in geometry?
4. What are other applications of circular segments in real life?
5. Can you relate this problem to any other type of geometric figure, like ellipses?

Tip: In geometry problems, symmetry can often simplify complex calculations significantly.
