Problem 19

The area of the region bounded by the graph of\[x^2+y^2 = 3|x-y| + 3|x+y|\]is $m+n\pi$, where $m$ and $n$ are integers. What is $m + n$?

$\textbf{(A)} ~18\qquad\textbf{(B)} ~27\qquad\textbf{(C)} ~36\qquad\textbf{(D)} ~45\qquad\textbf{(E)} ~54$

Solution 1

This is what the diagram looks like: [asy] size(10cm);  filldraw(arc((-3,0),3,180,180) -- cycle, gray); filldraw(arc((0,3),3,0,180) -- cycle, gray); filldraw(arc((3,0),3,180,180) -- cycle, gray); filldraw(arc((0,-3),3,180,180) -- cycle, gray); filldraw((-3,3)--(3,3)--(3,-3)--(-3,-3)--cycle, grey); [/asy] Now, the area of the shaded region is just a square with side length $6$ with four semicircles of radius $3$. The area is $6\cdot6+4\cdot \frac{9\pi}{2} = 36+18\pi$. The answer is $36+18$ which is $\boxed{\textbf{(E) }54}$ ~ Bryguy
