Estimate the perimeter and the area of the shaded figure to the nearest whole number.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The area and perimeter of the given shaded figure are respectively 33.12 unit² and 20.56 units.
Area and perimeter-based problem:
What information do we have?
Radius of semi-circle = 8 / 2 = 4 unit
Length of remain Rectangle = 8 unit
Width of remain Rectangle = 2 unit
Perimeter of shaded figure = πr + (l + 2b)
Perimeter of shaded figure = (3.14)(4) + [4 + (2)(2)]
Perimeter of shaded figure = 12.56 + 4 + 4
Perimeter of shaded figure = 20.56 units
Area of shaded figure = πr²/2 + lb/2
Area of shaded figure = (3.14)(4)²/2 + (8)(2)/2
Area of shaded figure = (3.14)(8) + 8
Area of shaded figure = 25.12 + 8
Area of shaded figure = 33.12 unit²
Answer:
Perimeter:
[tex]about \: 12 \: \: units[/tex]
Area:
[tex]about \: 21 \: {units} ^{2} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The perimeter of this shape would be the value of all the sides added together. The sides measure: 4 units, 4 units, 1 unit, 1 unit, 1 unit, 1 unit. Therefore the perimeter is: 12 units
[tex]4 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 = 12[/tex]
To find the area of the shape we have to split it into a square and 2 triangles. The formula to find the area of a square is
[tex]a = length \times width \: or \: {(side)}^{2} [/tex]
All sides of a square are equal and the side measures 4 units, hence the area is
[tex]{4} ^{2} = 16 [/tex]
The formula to find the area of a triangle is
[tex] \frac{1}{2} base \: \times height[/tex]
Both triangles are equal and as such after finding the area of one triangle you can just multiply it by 2. The base is 3 units and the height is 1.5 units.
[tex] \frac{1}{2} b \times h \\ \frac{1}{2} (3) \times 1.5 \\ 1.5 \times 1.5 = 2.25 \\ 2.25 \times 2 = 4.5[/tex]
[tex]area \: or \: square \: + area \: of \: 2 \: triangles \\ 16 + 4.5 = 20.5 \: or \: 21 (whole\: number)[/tex]
