Answer:
Perimeter = 65.12 in
Area = 292.48 in^2
which agrees with the second answer choice
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter is going to be the addition of the sides of the rectangle external to the composite figure ( 12 + 16 + 12 = 40) PLUS the length of half of the circumference or radius 8 inches (which is pi * radius = 3.14 * 8 = 25.12 in)
Then the total perimeter is:
Perimeter = 40 in + 25.12 in = 65.12 in
The are is going to be the area of the rectangle (12 * 16 = 192 square inches) PLUS the area of the semicircle of radius 8 in (pi *radius^2 /2 = 100.48 square inches).
Therefore the total area is:
Area = 192 + 100.48 = 292.48 in^2
In geometry, the midpoint is the middle point of a line segment. It is equidistant from both endpoints, and it is the centroid both of the segment and of the endpoints. It bisects the segment.
The length of each side would be 3 square meters
