Q

The given region is the combination of a semicircle with radius 2 cm and a right isosceles triangle with base length 4 cm. Find the area of the given region using the formula for the area of a circle, A = πr2 where r is the circle’s radius, and the formula for the area of a triangle, A = bh/2 where b and h are the lengths of the triangle’s base and height, respectively. Remember, a semicircle’s area is one half the area of the circle with the same radius.

A

8+2π cm^2
