The area of the shaded region is 3.125π - 6. The correct option is E. 3.125π - 6
<h3>Calculating area </h3>
From the question, we are to determine the area of the shaded region
The area of the shaded region = Area of the semicircle - Area of the triangle
First, we will determine the diameter, d, of the semicircle
d² = 3² + 4² (<em>Pythagorean theorem</em>)
d² = 9 + 16
d² = 25
d = √25
d = 5
∴ Diameter of the semicircle is 5
Thus,
Radius, r = 5/2 = 2.5
Now,
Area of the shaded region = 1/2(π×2.5²) - 1/2(3×4)
Area of the shaded region = 1/2(π×6.25) - 1/2(12)
Area of the shaded region = 3.125π - 6
Hence, the area of the shaded region is 3.125π - 6. The correct option is E. 3.125π - 6
