Answer:

D. d^2 - πd^2/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of the square are equal to the diameter of the circles so the area of the square = d^2.

The shaded area = area of the square -  4 * the area of a quarter circle

= area of the square - area of 1 circle

= d^2 - π r^2

r = d/2 so

Area of the shaded part = d^2 -  π (d/2)^2

= d^2 -  π (d^2/4)
