Geometric Pencil

Geometric Pencil: a composite plane figure made of a rectangle 2.6 × 6 cm, joined with a triangle with base 2.6 cm and height 2.8 cm, joined with a semicircle of radius 1.3 cm. It is a classic primary school geometry problem (“Additive Figures”). The net area is 21.89 cm² and the total perimeter is 22.26 cm.

Area of each basic shape before the Boolean composition.

How to find the area

Area formula: A = b·h + ½·b·h_p + ½·π·r²

Split the figure into basic shapes, find each area, add the joined parts and subtract the cut-outs: A = 15.6 + 3.64 + 2.65 = 21.89 cm².
