Teardrop / Ice-Cream Cone
Teardrop / Ice-Cream Cone: a composite plane figure made of a triangle with base 5.2 cm and height 6.4 cm, joined with a semicircle of radius 2.6 cm. It is a classic middle school geometry problem (“Arcs & Semicircles”). The net area is 27.25 cm² and the total perimeter is 21.98 cm.

Area of each basic shape before the Boolean composition.
How to find the area
Area formula: A = ½·b·h + ½·π·(b/2)²
Split the figure into basic shapes, find each area, add the joined parts and subtract the cut-outs: A = 16.64 + 10.62 = 27.25 cm².
