Solution

The correct option is A

equal to the area of ΔABC


Let AB=a, AC=b

BC = a2+b2 (Δ ABC is a right triangle)

ΔBAC=90 (angle in semi-circle)

Now, area of Δ ABC = 12ab

Now, area of semi-circle as diameter AB = 12π(a2)2

and , area of semi-circle as diameter AC = 12π(b2)2

area of semi-circle as diameter BC =12π[a2+b22]2

Area of triangle = 12ab

Now, area of shaded part

= [12πa24+12πb24][12π(b2+a24)12ab]

=π8(a2+b2)π8(a2+b2)+12ab

= 12ab = area of Δ ABC
