Right Triangle with 3 Semicircles

Right Triangle with 3 Semicircles: a composite plane figure made of a triangle with base 4.8 cm and height 3.6 cm, joined with a semicircle of radius 2.4 cm, joined with a semicircle of radius 1.8 cm, joined with a semicircle of radius 3 cm. It is a classic high school (grades 9–10) geometry problem (“Euclid & Polygons”). The net area is 36.89 cm² and the total perimeter is 22.62 cm.

Area of each basic shape before the Boolean composition.

How to find the area

Area formula: A_semi(a) + A_semi(b) = A_semi(c)

Split the figure into basic shapes, find each area, add the joined parts and subtract the cut-outs: A = 8.64 + 9.05 + 5.09 + 14.14 = 36.89 cm².
