Question

Find the area of the shaded region (in square inches).

  1. 119    
  2. 156    
  3. 189    
  4. 145    

hintHint:


area of semi circle = πr squared over 2

The correct answer is: 119


    Trapezium: b1 = 20 , b2 = 16, h = 8
    area of trapezium = fraction numerator left parenthesis s u m space o f space p a r e l l e l space s i d e space right parenthesis cross times h e i g h t over denominator 2 end fraction
    Area of trapezium = fraction numerator 1 over denominator 2 end fraction × (20+16)× 8 = 144 square in
    r = 4
    Area of semi- circle = (fraction numerator 180 over denominator 360 end fraction) × pi × 4 × 4 = 25.13
    Area of shaded region = Area of trapezium – Area of semi-circle
    = 144- 25 = 119
    so option 1 is the correct answer
