a norman window has the shape of a rectangle on three sides with a semicircle top. a particular norman window includes a 2 by 2 square. what is the area of the whole window? express your answer as a decimal to the nearest hundredth
If the bottom is a 2 x 2 square, the semi-circle surmounting it will have a radius of 1.
So the total area will be the area of the circle plus the area of the square =
[ (1/2)*pi * (1)^2 ] + [ 2 x 2 ] =
pi/2 + 4 =
about 5.57 units2
