Answer:

(1/2)xy - πr²

Explanation:

To find the area of the shaded region, you need to subtract the area of the circle from the area of the triangle. The area of the triangle is (base*height)*(1/2) which in this case is (1/2)(xy) and the area of a circle is πr² and this scenario it remains the same as the radius is given as "r." Therefore, the overall answer is just (1/2)xy - πr².
