1 answer:
Answer:
0.9675sq.cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Find a related diagram attached
Area of the shaded region = Area of rectangle - area of semicircle
Area of rectangle = 3cm * 1.5cm
Area of rectangle = 4.5sq.cm
Given
diameter of the semicircle = 3cm
area = πd²/8
Area of the semicircle = 3.14(3)²/8
Area of the semicircle = 3.5325sq.cm
Area of the shaded region = 4.5 - 3.5325
Area of the shaded region = 0.9675sq.cm
