Answer:

236.715 ft²

Explanation:

The figure consists of the rectangle with sides 15 ft and 4 ft and two semicircles with diameter 15 ft (radius 7.5 ft).

The area of the rectangle is

A₁=15·4=60 ft²

The area of two semicircles together is the area of circle. Thus,

A₂=πr²=π·7.5²=56.25π≈176.715 ft²

The area of the figure is

A=A₁+A₂=60+176.715=236.715 ft²
