Question

find the area of the given shape

Answer 1

Answer:

18.23 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

the given figure is composed of a rectangle (4cm by 3cm) and a semicircle with 4cm diameter (or 2 cm radius)

Area of rectangle =

length × breadth

$(4 \times 3) {cm}^{2}$

$12 {cm}^{2}$

Area of semi circle =

$\frac{1}{2} \pi {r}^{2}$

$\frac{1}{2} \times 3.14 \times {2}^{2} {cm}^{2}$

$6.28$

Total area of the figure =

$(12 + 6.28) {cm}^{2} = 18.28 {cm}^{2}$
