=>

Since triangle ABC is a right triangle, we have AC = 6 with AC^2 = BC^2 - AB^2.
The area of the semi-circle with diameter AB is 4^2π/2 = 8π and the area of the semi-circle with diameter AC is 3^2π/2 = 9π/2 and the area of the semi-circle with diameter BC is 5^2π/2 = 25π/2. The area of triangle ABC is (1/2)6*8 = 24.

We can get the area of the shaded region by subtracting the area of the semi-circle with diameter BC from the sum of the area of triangle ABC and the areas of the semi-circles with diameters AB and AC.

Then the area of the shaded region is 24 + 8π +(9/2) π – (25/2) π = 24.

Therefore, C is the answer.
