Question

A banner is made of a square and a semicircle. The square has side lengths of 24 inches. One side of the square is also the diameter of the semicircle. What is the total area of the banner? Use 3.14 for π.

Answer 1

The area of the square (24in×24in) is 576.
The area of the semi-circle is 226.08 [[(r=12, pi=3.14) (A= 1/2×(pi × r^2)], r=12, r^2=144, pi=3.14, 144×3.14=452.16÷2=226.08]
The total combined area of the banner is - 802.08 in
