Since figure is not given, assume drawing a rectangle and label it from left top to right top as A and B. Similarly label it as C and D from bottom left to right. Draw a semicircle starting from C to D inside the rectangle. You are asked to find area of shaded region which I assume is semicircular part. Area of a circle is determined by Pi × r ^2 r is the radius of circle which is half of diameter. The diameter of circle is same as width of rectangle. So radius = 7/2 = 3.5 mm And area of shaded region is
Parallel lines should have the same slope. Therefore, you know which point it passes through and the slope. Plug in the points and slop into slope-intercept form to find b. Please refer to the picture.
