\[(A) 3\sqrt{3} -\] \[(B) 3\sqrt{3} -4\] \[(C) 3\sqrt{3} - \frac{ 3\pi }{ 2 }\] \[(D) 6\sqrt{3} -\frac{ 3\pi }{ 2 }\] \[(E) 108 -\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[(E) 108-\pi \]

OpenStudy (stamp):

The shaded region is equal to the triangle - the circle.

OpenStudy (stamp):

We know the diameter (+radius) of the circle, and the circle's A(r)=pi r^2

OpenStudy (stamp):

2 diameter is 1 radius, circle = pi* (1)^2, pi * 1, = pi

OpenStudy (stamp):

so know we have the triangle - the circle, the triangle - pi

OpenStudy (stamp):

got any tricks 2find the triangle and finish ?
