The shaded regions consist of a triangle and a semicircle

Area of shaded regions = Area of Triangle + Area of semicircle

Area of Triangle = (h x b) ÷ 2

Height, h = 10 cm

Base, b = 8 cm

Are of the triangle component = (10 x 8) ÷ 2

= 80 ÷ 2

= 40 cm^2

Area of semicircle = πr^2 ÷ 2

Diameter, D = 8 cm

Radius, r = 8 cm ÷ 2 = 4 cm

Are of the semicircle component = [π(4^2) ÷ 2)

= 16π ÷ 2

= 16π cm^2

Total area of shaded regions

= (40+16π) cm^2

= 8 (5 +2π) cm^2
