Answer:
Area of semicircle = 226.08 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Diameter of semicircle = 24 in
We need to find area of semicircle.
The formula used to find area of semicircle is: [tex]Area=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}[/tex]
First we will find radius
We know that: radius = diameter/2 = 24/2 = 12
Now, finding area
[tex]Area=\frac{\pi r^2}{2}\\Area=\frac{3.14\times (12)^2}{2}\\Area=\frac{452.16}{2}\\Area=226.08\:in^2[/tex]
So, Area of semicircle = 226.08 in²
