Question

Val needs to find the area enclosed by the figure. The figure is made by attaching

Answer 1

Answer: See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius of the semicircle = 46/2 = 23 m

$\therefore Area enclosed by the figure =4 \times Area of semicircles + Area of square \begin{aligned} \\&=4 \times 3.14 \times(23)^{2} \times \frac{1}{2}+(46)^{2} \\&=3322.12+2116 \end{aligned} \\\\\\Area enclosed =5438.12 \mathrm{~m}^{2}$

So, Val might have have subtracted 2116 from 3322.12 instead of adding since 3322.12 - 2116 = 1206.12
