A plot is in the form of a rectangle ABCD having semi-circle on BC as shown in Fig.If AB=60 m and BC=28 m,find the area of the plot.
Length of rectangular portion (l)=60 m and breadth (b)=28 m
∴ Area of the rectangular plot=l×b=60×28 m2=1680 m2
Radius of semicircular portion (r)=b2=282=14 m
∴ Area=12πr2=12×227×14×14 m2=308 m2
∴ Total area of the plot=1680+308=1988 m2
