Semicircles are drawn on all three sides of a right triangle with legs 6 cm and 8 cm, each side acting as a diameter. Find the total area of the three semicircles in cm². Take π = 3.14.

Question

Accepted Answer

78.5. The hypotenuse is 10 cm. A semicircle on diameter d has area (π/8)d², so the total = (π/8)(36 + 64 + 100) = (π/8)(200) = 25π = 25 × 3.14 = 78.5 cm².

Semicircles are drawn on all three sides of a right triangle with legs 6 cm and 8 cm, each side acting as a diameter. Find the total area of the three semicircles in $cm^{2}$ . Take π = 3.14.
