Answer:
Part 1) The area of the figure is [tex]A=48\ cm^2[/tex]
Part 2) The perimeter of the figure is [tex]P=4(2+3\pi)\ cm[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Find the area of the figure
we know that
The area of the figure is equal to the area of three squares
so
[tex]A=3[4^2]=48\ cm^2[/tex]
Part 2) Find the perimeter of the figure
we know that
The perimeter of the figure is equal to two times the length side of the square, plus the circumference of six semicircles ( or the circumference of three circles)
Remember that
The circumference of a circle is equal to
[tex]C=\pi D[/tex]
where
D is the diameter of the circle
In this problem
[tex]D=4\ cm[/tex]
so
[tex]P=2(4)+3[\pi(4)]=(8+12\pi)\ cm[/tex]
simplify
[tex]P=4(2+3\pi)\ cm[/tex]
