(Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
The area of the shaded segment can be found by subtracting the area of the triangle from the area of the sector.
Area of sector = (120/360) * π * (6)^2 = 12π
Area of triangle = (1/2) * 6 * 6 * sin(120°) = 18√3
Area of shaded segment = Area of sector - Area of triangle
= 12π - 18√3
≈ 19.3 cm^2
Therefore, the area of the shaded segment is approximately 19.3 cm^2.
