Question

1. Calculate the area of the

figure below. Round to the
hundredths place when
necessary.

Answer 1

The area is 88.39 cm

Explanation:

Here, we want to find the area of the semicircle given that the diameter of the semi circle is 15 cm

We start by getting the radius

Mathematically r = D/2

= 15/2 = 7.5

Area of semicircle is area of circle/2

= (pi * r^2)/2

= (22/7 * 7.5^2)/2 = 88.39 cm
