we are given

three shapes

first is rectangle

second is circle

third is triangle

we can find area of each shapes and then subtract them accordingly to find shaded area

Area of rectangle:

length=l=18

width=w=6

we know that

area = length*width


Area=18*6


Area=108

Area of semicircle:

we are given

radius =r=6/2=3

now, we can find area


Area=(1)/(2) \pi r^2


Area=(1)/(2) \pi 3^2


Area=(9)/(2) \pi

Area of triangle:

base=b=9

height=h=6

now, we can find area


Area=(1)/(2) *b*h


Area=(1)/(2) *9*6


Area=27

Area of shaded region:

Area = rectangle -triangle -2*semicircle

so, we get


Area=108-27-2*(9)/(2) \pi

we get


Area=52.72567

so, option-B..........Answer
