Answer:

Area of semicircular lawn is 9.82 square meter.

Explanation:

Given:

Diameter of the semicircle = 5 m

So we will find the radius.

Radius is half of the diameter.

Radius
r=(5)/(2)=2.5\ m

We need to find the area of the lawn.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Area of semicircle is half times π times square of the radius.

framing in equation form we get;

Area of semicircular lawn =
\frac12\pi r^2=\frac12*(22)/(7)* 2.5* 2.5=9.82\ m^2

Hence Area of semicircular lawn is 9.82 square meter.
