Explanation:
The answer will be r^2.
Here is how.
A semicircle has the largest triangle's base as its diameter, and its perpendicular or height as its radius
∴\frac{1}{2} *2r*r = r^{2}

Answer:
r 2 sq. units
Explanation:
The area of a triangle is equal to the base times the height.
In a semi circle, the diameter is the base of the semi-circle.
This is equal to 2×r (r = the radius)
If the triangle is an isosceles triangle with an angle of 45
∘
at each end, then the height of the triangle is also a radius of the circle.
A = 1/2
×b×h formula for the area of a triangle becomes
A = 1/2
×2×r×r because:
The base of the triangle is equal to 2×r
The height of the triangle is equal to r
A = 1/2 ×2×r×r becomes:
A = r sq.
