Answer 2

You basically need to find the perimeter of the rectangle minus the one side connected to the circle and add that to half of the circumference of the circle. If you still need help in here :)

Answer 3

okay so lets first find the area of the rectangle ? so 19x29

Answer 4

then the area of a circle is

Answer 5

then we will half it because its a semi circle

Answer 6

the diameter of the circle is 19 so half would be the radius which is 9.5

Answer 7

so 3.14 x 9.5^2

Answer 8

so 3.14 x 90.25

Answer 9

283.385

Answer 10

REMEMBER: we need to half this because of the semi circle

Answer 11

141.6925 is the area of the semi circle

Answer 12

and the area of the rectangle is 19x29=551

so 141.6925+551= 692.6925 <- is the final area
