Question

Find the area of the semicircle.

Answer 1

Given:

Given that the radius of the semicircle is 4 units.

We need to determine the area of the semicircle.

Area of the semicircle:

The area of the semicircle can be determined using the formula,

$A=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}$

Substituting π = 3.14 and r = 4, we get;

$A=\frac{3.14 \times (4)^2}{2}$

Simplifying, we get;

$A=\frac{3.14 \times 16}{2}$

Multiplying, we get;

$A=\frac{50.24}{2}$

Dividing, we get;

$A=25.12$

Thus, the area of the semicircle is 25.12 square units.
