B. 1371.7 square feet
C. 1622.4 square feet
D. 2206.5 square feet
Only answer if you are positive about the answer!!

Answer 1

Answer D (2206.5 ft^2) is closest to the calculated answer 2206.85 ft^2.

Explanation:

We can break up this figure into a 30 ft by 50 ft rectangle and a circle of diameter 30 ft.

The area of the rectangular part is A1 = (30 ft)(50 ft) = 1500 ft^2.

The area of the circular part is A2 = π(15 ft)^2 = 706.9 ft^2

Thus, the total area is approx A1 + A2, or 2206.86 ft^2 (Answer D)
