Given, CD=2 units=AB and radius is 2 units.
Question ImageArea of an equilateral triangle is 34a2.
Let O be the centre of the circle.
Area of shaded region = Area of sector made by arc AB with centre - area of triangle AOB
Area of shaded region =Length of arc CD2πr×πr-34a2.
Area of shaded region = 22π×2×227×2×2-12×2×2×32.
Area of shaded region =8842-3 Area of shaded region =2.095-1.732 Area of shaded region =0.362sq. units
