Find the area of the figure to the nearest square unit.

Hello!

We can solve this by dividing the shape into a rectangle and a semicircle

To find the area of a rectangle you do l * w

7 * 10 = 70

Then we find the area of a semicircle

To do this we have to treat it like it is a full circle and divide that by 2

To find the area of a circle you do 

the r is the radius which is half the diameter of the circle

so the radius is 3.5

We put this into a calculator and get 38.48

then we divide this by 2 to get 19.24

We add the area of the rectangle by the area of the semicircle

19.24 + 70 = 89.24

The answer is 89in

Hope this helps!
