Answer:
Part a) The area of the figure is ![\frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%284%2B%5Cpi%20%29%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D)
Part b) The perimeter of the figure is ![3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3%282%2B2%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%2B%20%5Cpi%29%5C%20cm)
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1
Find the area of the figure
In this problem we have that
The figure ABC is the half of a square and the other figure is a semicircle
<u>Find the area of the figure ABC</u>
we have
![AB=6\ cm, BC=6\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%3D6%5C%20cm%2C%20BC%3D6%5C%20cm)
The area of the half square ABC is equal to find the area of triangle ABC
so
![A1=\frac{1}{2}*6*6=18\ cm^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A1%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%2A6%2A6%3D18%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D)
<u>Find the area of the semicircle</u>
The area of the semicircle is equal to
![A2=\pi r^{2}/2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A2%3D%5Cpi%20r%5E%7B2%7D%2F2)
we have that
![r=6/2=3\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D6%2F2%3D3%5C%20cm)
substitute
![A2=\pi (3)^{2}/2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A2%3D%5Cpi%20%283%29%5E%7B2%7D%2F2)
![A2=(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=A2%3D%289%2F2%29%20%5Cpi%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D)
The area of the figure is equal to
![18\ cm^{2}+(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}= \frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=18%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D%2B%289%2F2%29%20%5Cpi%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B9%7D%7B2%7D%284%2B%5Cpi%20%29%5C%20cm%5E%7B2%7D)
Step 2
Find the perimeter of the figure
The perimeter of the figure is equal to
![P=AB+AC+length\ CB](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%3DAB%2BAC%2Blength%5C%20CB)
we have
![AB=6\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AB%3D6%5C%20cm)
Applying Pythagoras theorem
![AC=\sqrt{6^{2}+6^{2}}\\AC=6\sqrt{2}\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=AC%3D%5Csqrt%7B6%5E%7B2%7D%2B6%5E%7B2%7D%7D%5C%5CAC%3D6%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%5C%20cm)
Remember that
the circumference of a semicircle is equal to
![C=\frac{1}{2}2\pi r=\pi r](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C%3D%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D2%5Cpi%20r%3D%5Cpi%20r)
![r=6/2=3\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=r%3D6%2F2%3D3%5C%20cm)
![C=\pi(3)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C%3D%5Cpi%283%29)
![C=3 \pi\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=C%3D3%20%5Cpi%5C%20cm)
The perimeter of the figure is equal to
![P=6\ cm+6\sqrt{2}\ cm+3 \pi\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%3D6%5C%20cm%2B6%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%5C%20cm%2B3%20%5Cpi%5C%20cm)
Simplify
![P=3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P%3D3%282%2B2%5Csqrt%7B2%7D%2B%20%5Cpi%29%5C%20cm)
