The two unshaded portions in the figure are of the same area (as there is a symmetry). Let's see each of them is "A". And the shaded area= "B"
So, 2A+B= area of square = (5 sqrt 2)^2 = 50
And A+B= area of a quarter circle = 1/4 * pi * (5 sqrt 2)^2 = 50*pi/4
So, A= 50 - 50*pi/4 = (200-50*pi)/4
And unshaded region = 25*pi - 50
So, 2A+B= area of square = (5 sqrt 2)^2 = 50
And A+B= area of a quarter circle = 1/4 * pi * (5 sqrt 2)^2 = 50*pi/4
So, A= 50 - 50*pi/4 = (200-50*pi)/4
And unshaded region = 25*pi - 50
