Ellyana's landscape gardening business creates odd-shaped lawns that include semicircles. Which choice best represents the area of this semicircular section of the lawn in this design. Use 3.14 for piA: 452.16 meters squared B: 29.5788 meters squaredC: 56.52 meters squaredD: 226.08 meters squared

Answer :

the area of a complete circle can be calculated with the next formula

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

the radio is half of the diameter

r=12/2=6

First, we need to calculate the complete area

[tex]A=\pi r^2=3.14\cdot6^2=113.04[/tex]

Because we have a semicircle the area is half of the area of the complete circle

[tex]A_{sc}=\frac{113.04}{2}=56.52m^2[/tex]

Asn= area semicircle

The correct answer is C
