A playground has the shape of a rectangle, with two semi-circles on its smaller sides as diameters, added to its outside. If the sides of the rectangle are `36 m\ a n d\ 24. 5 m ,` find the area of the playground. `(T a k e\ pi=22/7)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Area of playground=Area of rectangle`+2xx` area of semi circle
`=(36xx24.5)+2xx1/2xxpi r^2`
`=882+(22​)/(7)xx12.25xx12.25`
`=1353.625 m^2`
