Answer:

b) is correct 120π square units

Explanation:

The sector that is not shaded froms a 300 degree angle. The area of that sector and its angle are proportional with the area of the entire circle and its angle, which is 360 degrees.

We start by computing the area of the circle. Since the radius is 12 units, then the area of the circle is 12² * π = 144π square units. Therefore, the area of the non shaded area is

144π * 300/360 = 120π square units

as option b) suggests.
