Detailed Solution

It is given that, AC = 24 cm and BC = 10 cm.
We have to find the area of the shaded region.
Question ImageThe area of a circle can be expressed as A=π r 2  , where r is the radius of a circle.
Then, by using the Pythagoras theorem in the triangle ACB
AB 2 = AC 2 + BC 2 AB 2 = 24 2 + 10 2 AB 2 =576+100 AB=26 cm  
Thus, the radius, r of the circle is,
r= AB 2 r= 26 2 r=13cm  
So, the area, A of the circle is,
A=π r 2 A= 22 7 13 2 A=530.66 cm 2  
Then, the area of the semi-circle, A'   is,
A'= A 2 A'= 530.66 2 A'=265.33  cm 2  
Thus, the area of the shaded region, A s   is,
A s =530.66 265.33+ 1 2 24 10 A s =530.66385.33 A s =145.33  cm 2  
The area of the shaded region is 145.33 c m 2  
Therefore, the correct option is 2.
