Question

1
it playground has the shape of a
rectangle with two semicircles on its
smaller sides as diameters, added to
its outside. If the sides of the rectangle
ou are 36m and 24.5m, find the area
of the playground.​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

• area of playground = area of rectangle + area of circle ( as there are two semi circles )
• area of rectangle = l × b
• = 36 × 24.5
• = 882 m²

• radius = diameter / 2
• = 24.5 ÷ 2
• = 12.25
• area of circle = πr²
• = 22/7 × 12.25²
• 471.625 m²

• area of playground = area of rectangle + area of circle
• = 882 m² + 471.625 m²
• = 1353.625 m²
