Answer:
the total area is 15.6 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
hello,
you can find the total area dividing the shape into two known shapes
total area= area of the trapezoid +area of the semicircle
then
step one
find the area of the isosceles trapezoid using
where
a is the smaller base
b is the bigger base
h is theheight
A is the area
let
a=2
b=5
h=4
put the values into the equation
Step two
find the area of the semicircle
the area of a circle is given by
but, we need the area of half circle, we need divide this by 2
now the diameter of the semicircle is 2, put this value into the equation
find the total area
total area= area of the trapezoid +area of the semicircle
so, the total area is 15.6 square units
Have a good day.
