The first step to solving this problem is to find the area and circumference of the half circle using these equations:

d/(1)/(2) =r
r*\pi=C and
C/(1)/(2)= a
d= diameter
r= radius
C= circumference
a= answer

So the the "d" of the half circle is 10, and half of 10 is

r=5 . Because we are solving for only half of the circle this is what happens:

5*\pi =15.71

15.71*(1)/(2) =7.86
Now we just add the other sides together:
10+19+19+7.86=55.86m
The Perimeter is 55.86

Now for the area we must use a similar equation for the half circle:
Area=\pi r^2

5^2=25
25*\pi =78.54

This is the area of the whole circle so we have to divide 78.54 by half to get our answer, which is 39.27


10*19=190 This is the area of the rectangle

190+ 39.27=229.27 Is the area of the whole shape

Perimeter= 55.86
Area= 229.27
