this is difficult

Guru punked out on this one, lol

Use trig. You have two figures in the shaded region. Split it into a triangle and a semicircle. For the triangle you have the 90 Deg angles for 2 of the sides and the 120 deg for the other. so have to use trig (sin, cos, etc) to determine the numbers of the 3 sides. Then use the A=(1/2)(base)(height). For the circle A=πr^2. Since this is "SEMI" we have to divide by (1/2), thus the equation becomes: A=(1/2)π(radius)^2. You can find the radius of the semicircle by using the appropriate trig (sin cos etc) of the 120 degree.

Add the areas of both after you compute

hero (hero):

I found the area, but I'm not telling anybody.....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

tell me

hero (hero):

Well, it's kinda long and arduous to explain....I'm not sure you would 'get it"

hero (hero):

1. Draw a line from the angle outside the circle to the center of the circle. 2. Realize that you just created two 30-60-90 triangles after drawing this line. 3. Label the sides of the triangle accordingly 4. Find the total area of both triangles. 5. Find the area of the sector of the circle. 6. Subtract the area of the sector from the area of both triangles.

That's about as simple as I can put it.

And where are you now? You disappeared as soon as you came....

Cherri pulls greater disappearing acts than the mafia himself...
