Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  100.27 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of each square is ...

  A = s^2 = (6 ft)^2 = 36 ft^2

The area of the 1/4 circle is ...

  A = 1/4πr^2 = 1/4π(6 ft)^2 = 9π ft^2 ≈ 28.27 ft^2

__

The area of the garden is the sum of the areas of the quarter circle and the two squares:

  A = 28.27 ft^2 + 2×36 ft^2 = 100.27 ft^2

The area of the garden is about 100.27 square feet.
