Answer:

3.14 x 42 x 42 = 5538.96ft

If your wondering why used 3.14 instead of 22/7 is because they are exactly the same just one is a whole number and the other is a fraction. I suggest you use 3.14 because its easier than 22/7.

A semi circle is half a full circle. Find the area of the full circle and divide it by 2.

Area of a circle = pi x r ^2

R is half the diameter

Area of full circle:

Area = 22/7 x 21^2

Area = 1386 sq. Ft

Area of stage = 1386/2 = 693 square feet
