Question

This composite shape is a rectangle with a semicircle attached on one end. The diameter of the semicircle is 6 feet.

Answer 1

As we can see on the picture we have a rectangle and half of circle.

The areas for half circle and rectangle are:

$A_{rectangle}=a\cdot b \\A_{halfcircle}=\frac{A_{circle}}{2}=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}$

The area of the figure is the sum of the area of half circle and rectangle. Also the height of a rectangle (6ft) is a diameter of a half circle therefore the radius of half circle is 6ft ÷ 2 = 3ft.

Now we calculate the areas.

$A_{rectangle}=10\cdot 6=\underline{60} \\A_{halfcircle}=\frac{3.14\cdot3^2}{2}=\underline{14.13} \\A_{total}=A_{rectangle}+A_{halfcircle} =60+14.13=\boxed{74.13\approx74}$

The area of the figure is approximately 74ft squared.

Hope this helps.
