Solution

Area of the square is given by

A = 282
   = 784 cm

Since there are four identical circles inside the square.
Hence the radius of each circle is one-fourth of the side of the square.

Area of one circle = π x 7 
                             = 154 cm2

Area of four circle = 4 x 154cm 
                             = 616 cm

Area remaining = 784 - 616
                          = 168 cm

The area remaining in the cardboard is = 168 cm2.
