Answer:

$\dfrac{x+2}{x+1}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor the numerator and cancel common factors from numerator and denominator.

$\dfrac{x^2-4}{(x-2)(x+1)}=\dfrac{(x-2)(x+2)}{(x-2)(x+1)}=\dfrac{x+2}{x+1}$

A figure is composed of a semicircle and a right triangle. Determine the area of the shaded region. Use 3.14 for π and round to

Aliun [14]

Answer:

$A=9.5\ ft^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the shaded region is equal to the area of triangle plus the area of semicircle

$A=\frac{1}{2}bh+\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}$

we have

$b=4\ ft$

Find the height of the right triangle applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$5^2=h^2+4^2$

$h^2=9\\h=3\ ft$

The radius of the semicircle is half the height of triangle

$r=3/2=1.5\ ft$

substitute in the formula

$A=\frac{1}{2}(4)(3)+\frac{1}{2}(3.14)(1.5)^{2}$

$A=6+3.5=9.5\ ft^2$
