Answer:

Area = 5π/2 in^2

Perimeter = 3π + 2 in

Explanation:

A=area of a circle. P=Perimeter of a circle

F=Area of first semi-circle

T=Area of Figure

Solve for Area:

A=πr^2

F=A/2

A=π(2)^2 ==> solve for A

A=4π

F=(4π)/2
F=2π ==> this is for the first semi-circle

S=Area of second semi-circle

S=(πr^2)/2

S=(π(2/2)^2)/2 ==> the radius is half the diameter, and the diameter is 2 in

S=(π(1)^2)/2

S=π/2

T=F+S ==> The total area is the area of both semi-circles

T=2π + π/2 ==> plugin 2π for F and π/2 for S

T = 4π/2 + π/2 ==> common denominators

T = 5π/2 in^2

Now solve for perimeter

P = 2πr.

q = perimeter of first semi-circle

q = P/2

q = 2πr/2

q = 2π(2)/2 ==> plugin 2 for r

q = 2π

R = Perimeter of second semi-circle

R = 2π(1)/2 ==> we calculated that the radius of the semi-circle is half of the

radius of the first semi-circle

R = 2π/2 ==> simplify

R = π

Also, add in side length DC into the perimeter as it is part of the perimeter.

E = Entire perimeter of figure

E = q + R + DC

E = 2π + π + 2

E = 3π + 2 in
