Area
Rectangle + Semicircle
Made from one rectangle and half a circle.
A = lb + ½πr²
Area
Rectangle + Triangle
Made from one rectangle and one triangle.
A = lb + ½bh
Area
Two Semicircles + Rectangle
Two semicircles combine to make one full circle.
A = lb + πr²
Area
Annulus / Ring
Made from a big circle with a smaller circle removed.
A = π(R² − r²)
Rectangle + Semicircle
Find the rectangle area first. Then find half of the circle area. Add both parts.
Solved Examples
Example 1: l = 10, b = 6, r = 3
- Rectangle area = 10 × 6 = 60.
- Semicircle area = ½ × 3.14 × 3² = 14.13.
- Total area = 60 + 14.13 = 74.13.
Example 2: l = 12, b = 8, r = 4
- Rectangle area = 12 × 8 = 96.
- Semicircle area = ½ × 3.14 × 4² = 25.12.
- Total area = 96 + 25.12 = 121.12.
Example 3: l = 16, b = 10, r = 5
- Rectangle area = 16 × 10 = 160.
- Semicircle area = ½ × 3.14 × 5² = 39.25.
- Total area = 160 + 39.25 = 199.25.

Rectangle + Triangle
Find the rectangle area. Then find the triangle area using ½ × base × height.
Solved Examples
Example 1: rectangle 8×5, triangle base 5 height 6
- Rectangle area = 8 × 5 = 40.
- Triangle area = ½ × 5 × 6 = 15.
- Total area = 40 + 15 = 55.
Example 2: rectangle 12×7, triangle base 7 height 8
- Rectangle area = 12 × 7 = 84.
- Triangle area = ½ × 7 × 8 = 28.
- Total area = 84 + 28 = 112.
Example 3: rectangle 15×10, triangle base 10 height 12
- Rectangle area = 15 × 10 = 150.
- Triangle area = ½ × 10 × 12 = 60.
- Total area = 150 + 60 = 210.

Two Semicircles + Rectangle
Two semicircles make one complete circle, so use πr² only once.
Solved Examples
Example 1: l = 12, b = 6, r = 3
- Rectangle area = 12 × 6 = 72.
- The two semicircles form one circle.
- Circle area = 3.14 × 3² = 28.26.
- Total area = 72 + 28.26 = 100.26.
Example 2: l = 15, b = 8, r = 4
- Rectangle area = 15 × 8 = 120.
- The two semicircles form one full circle.
- Circle area = 3.14 × 4² = 50.24.
- Total area = 120 + 50.24 = 170.24.
Example 3: l = 20, b = 10, r = 5
- Rectangle area = 20 × 10 = 200.
- The two semicircles form one full circle.
- Circle area = 3.14 × 5² = 78.5.
- Total area = 200 + 78.5 = 278.5.

Annulus / Ring Shape
Find the big circle area. Find the small circle area. Subtract the small circle from the big circle.
Solved Examples
Example 1: R = 6, r = 3
- Big circle area = 3.14 × 6² = 113.04.
- Small circle area = 3.14 × 3² = 28.26.
- Ring area = 113.04 − 28.26 = 84.78.
Example 2: R = 8, r = 4
- Big circle area = 3.14 × 8² = 200.96.
- Small circle area = 3.14 × 4² = 50.24.
- Ring area = 200.96 − 50.24 = 150.72.
Example 3: R = 10, r = 5
- Big circle area = 3.14 × 10² = 314.
- Small circle area = 3.14 × 5² = 78.5.
- Ring area = 314 − 78.5 = 235.5.
