help pls

HELP
OpenStudy (anonymous):
the area of a square is A = b*h and the area of a semicircle is A = pi*r^2/2 so the area of the composite figure is A = b*h+pi*r^2/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not a square a rectangle*

of wait so do i find the area of both the shapes then i add them up?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
yeah
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok can you tell me formula for circle
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so 240+
OpenStudy (anonymous):
its more like 290-something

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
hmm, HELPMEWITHMYQUESTION what would be the area for the "rectangular" part of it only?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i got 12*20=240 then i add 240 with area of half a circle right?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
jdoe im saying the rectangle would be 240
OpenStudy (anonymous):
12*20+pi/2*6

ok... and now about the semi-circle on the right
what would be its "radius"?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
6 would e radies

OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok so now wat?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so 3.14*6^2

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
so 6 is the radius, let's get is Area then, area of a circle \(\large \boldsymbol{\pi r^2}\)
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
ohh... yes. 3.14. * 6^2... well, HALF-THAT is the area of the SEMI-circle
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
semi = half
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i got 113.04 if i did 3.14*6^2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
so now i divide 113.04/2?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
yeap, because 113.04 is the Area of the whole circle, but the "figure" is only using half a circle, so half its Area only
OpenStudy (anonymous):
when i do that i get 56.52
OpenStudy (anonymous):
now i add 240+56?
OpenStudy (jdoe0001):
ok, that's the Area of the "semi-circular" part, add that to the "rectangular" part and that sum will be the Area of the figure :)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ok wait
