  • A 12.5 cm2
  • B 75.0 cm2
  • C 78.5 cm2
  • D 84.8 cm2
Correct Answer: Option D
Explanation:
Area of the figure = Area of rect + area of semi circle
\(=L \times h + \frac{1}{2}\pi r^2\\
5 \times 15 + \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{22}{7} \times \left(\frac{5}{2}\right)^2\\
=75+\frac{(22\times 25)}{2\times7}\\
=75 + 9\frac{23}{28}\\
=84.8cm\)
