The figure shown is a rectangle with a semicircle on each end. The area of the figure is 76.3 in sq.
What is the area of the rectangle?
The area of the rectangle is the product of the length and width of a given rectangle.
The area of the rectangle = length × Width
The figure shown is a rectangle with a semicircle on each end.
We need to find the area of the rectangle ;
The area of the rectangle = length × Width
= 8 x 6
= 48 in sq.
Now, We need to find the area of one of the semicircles.
The area of the semicircles =
[tex]\pi r^2/2\\\\= 3.14 \times 3^2 /2\\\\= 28.26 /2\\\\= 14.13[/tex]
The area of 2 semicircle = 2 x 14.13
= 28.26
The area of the figure is
48 + 28.26
= 76.26 in sq.
= 76.3 in sq.
Hence, The correct answer is A.
