Explain the steps you would take to find the area of the following composite shape. (Use 3.14 for π.)

Answer:
see the explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The area of the composite figure is equal to the area of a semicircle plus the area of a rectangle
step 1
Find the area of semicircle
The area of semicircle is
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}\ units^2[/tex]
step 2
Find the area of rectangle
The area of rectangle is equal to
[tex]A=bh[/tex]
where
b is the base of rectangle (is the same that the diameter of semicircle)
h is the height of rectangle
[tex]b=2r\ units[/tex]
[tex]A=2rh\ units^2[/tex]
step 3
Find the area of the composite figure
Adds the areas
[tex]A=(\frac{1}{2}\pi r^{2}+2rh)\ units^2[/tex]
Answer:
Here is rewritten version of the guy above
we know that
The area of the composite figure is equal to the area of a semicircle plus the area of a rectangle
step 1
Find the area of semicircle
The area of semicircle is
A = 1/2 x 3.14r^2 units^2
step 2
Find the area of rectangle
The area of rectangle is equal to
A = bh
where
b is the base of rectangle (is the same that the diameter of semicircle)
h is the height of rectangle
b = 2r units
A = 2rh units^2
step 3
Find the area of the composite figure
Adds the areas
A = (1/2x3.14r^2 + 2rh) units^2
