Answer:
145.1 square meters
Explanation:
The figure is composed of a rectangle and a semicircle.
Therefore, area of the figure = area of the rectangle + area of the semicircle
✔️Area of the rectangle = L*W
L = 15 m
W = 8 m
Area of rectangle = 15*8 = 120 m²
✔️Area of semicircle = ½(πr²)
r = ½ of 8 = 4 m
Area of semicircle = ½*π*4²
Area of semicircle = 25.1327413 m²
✔️Area of the figure = 120 + 25.1327413 = 145.132741 ≈ 145.1 m² (nearest tenth)
