Answer:
How can BC(a chord) longer than Ab(a diameter).
A diameter is the longest chord.
I think AB=15 cm
BC=12 cm
U wrote the opposite.......
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC is a right triangle(angle formed in a semi-circle is 90 degrees)
AB=15 cm
BC=12 cm
AC=√(AB²-BC²)
AC=√225-144
AC=√81
AC=9 cm
Area of triangle ABC=1/2*b*h
Area=1/2*9*12
Area= 54 cm²
Now, area of semi-circle ACB:
πr²/2
(22/7*6*6)/2
=22/7*6*3
=22/7*18
=396 / 7
=56.57 cm²
Area of shaded region=Area of semicircle-area of triangle
Area of shaded region=56.57 cm²-54 cm²
=2.57 cm²
