If each of the four circles shown above touches two other circles at exactly one point each and has a radius of 6, what is the perimeter of the shaded region?


A. \(12\pi\)

B. \(8\pi\)

C. \(6\pi\)

D. \(4\pi\)

E. \(3\pi\)

The shaded region is composed of 4 equal arcs, and each of these equal arcs is 1/4 of a circle of radius 6, so all 4 arcs together are equal to the circumference of an entire circle.

Since each circle has a radius of 6, the circumference of each circle = the perimeter of the shaded region = 12π.
