Question

Find the area of the blue shaded region

Answer 1

Explanation:

Area of shaded region= area of rectangle- area of semi-circle

Area of rectangle= l×b

=6×4

=24 in²

Area of semi-circle=
`(\pi r^(2) )/(2)`

=
`(\pi (2)^(2) )/(2)`

= 6.28 in²

Area of shaded region= area of rectangle- area of semi-circle

= 24-6.28

=17.72 in²
