This can be done by first calculating the whole "slice" of the circle and then subtracting the area of the triangle.
Since there are 360° in a triangle and the central angle is 30°, the area of the slice will be 30/360 or 1/12 of the circle.
The formula for the area of a circle = πr².
Since the diameter is 6, the radius will be 3 and the area of the circle = π·3², which is 9π.) = The area of the slice will be (1/12) of 9π which is (3/4)π .
The area of the triangle can be found various ways. One way is to use the formula: A = .5·a·b·sinC.
a = 3 b = 3 sin(30°) = 0.5 A = .5·3·3·.5 = 2.25
Area of the shaded area = (3/4)π - 2.25
