Question

6 feet 12 feet What is the area of the given composite shape?

Answer 1

Answer:

choice A; 128.52 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This shape is made up of a semi-circle and a rectangle. The area of the rectangle will be 12*6 = 72 sq ft.

The formula for area of a circle is $\pi$*$r^{2}$. also r=radius. We are given the diameter, 12 feet. The radius is diameter/2, so the radius of the circle will be 6 feet.

Since pi is infinite we round it to 3.14.

Plug in the values and our expression will be (3.14*$6^{2}$)/2 because it is a semi-circle. Simplify that to (3.14*36)/2 = 113.04/2 = 56.52 sq ft.

Remember to add the area of the rectangle and semi-circle. 72 + 56.52 = 128.52 sq ft.
