Correct Answer: 0.77 m 2


Solution : Given: The perimeter of the semi-circle is 3.6 metres.
Let the radius of the semi-circle be $r$.
According to the question,
$\pi r + 2r=3.6$
⇒ $r(\pi+2)=3.6$
⇒ $r(\frac{22}{7}+2)=3.6$
⇒ $r(\frac{36}{7})=3.6$
⇒ $r=3.6×\frac{7}{36}$
⇒ $r=\frac{7}{10}$ metres
So, the area of the semi-circle = $\frac{1}{2}\pi r^2$
= $\frac{1}{2}×\frac{22}{7}×\frac{7}{10}×\frac{7}{10}$
= 0.77 m 2
Hence, the correct answer is 0.77 m 2 .
