Can someone check my answer for this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got aprx 121

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No I think It's wrong answer First find the area of the rectangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

then subtract the area of the 2 semi circle which actually is one circle its radius half of the width

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not 121 or close unfortunately. Do what @ghaida suggested.

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[\sf \text{Area of rectangle} = A= l\cdot w\]\[\sf \text{area of circle} = A= \pi r^2~,~ r = \frac{D}{2}\]

Directrix (directrix):

@heythatsness Do you have a revised answer for this problem or do you want to start over at the beginning?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have 420 for the area of a rectangle

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

And now find the area of the 2 semi circles, or rather, full circle.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 153.94 for one semi circle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and since there's two I add them both and get 307.88?

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Good, now subtract the area of the rectangle - area of the 2 semicircles (full circle)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

That gives you the area of the paper that remains.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got 266.06

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Let's check:

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\[420 - 49\pi = 266.06 ~\checkmark\]

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

Good job :)
