Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Calculation:
The figure consists of
Area of un-shaded rectangle:
The area of shaded hexagon is same to half of the perimeter of hexagon multiplied by the apothem of hexagon:
Then the area of un-shaded circle:
Area of un-shaded circle:
The probability that point chosen at the random lies in the shaded region dividing the area of shaded region by the area of the given figure:
The probability of the point chosen at the random lies in a shaded region is
