Question

Can you please help me find the area of the shaded triangle? Thank you :)

Answer 1

Area of shaded triangle = Area of triangle - area of circle

Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Base= 16 yds

Height= 19 yds

Area of triangle = 1/2 x 16 x 19 = 8 x 19 =152 square yard

`\begin{gathered} \text{Area of circle = }\pi* r^2 \\ \pi=3.14 \\ r=5\text{yds} \\ \text{Area of circle = 3.14 }*5^2=78.5yard^2 \end{gathered}`

Area of shaded triangle = 152 - 78.5 =73.5 square yard
