Answer:

28.258mm

Explanation:

A semi circle is half of a circle, so we will divide it by 2 after finding the area.

Formula for finding semi circle = pi x radius ÷ 2

Formula for radius = diameter ÷ 2

Radius = 36 ÷ 2 = 18mm

Semi circle = 3.14 or 22/7 x 18 = 56.57

56.57 ÷ 2 = 28.285

Note: I don't have a calculator with me right now, so you might want to consider typing out pi x 18 ÷ 2 on a calculator since my answer might be wrong because the answer has endless decimals.
