We know the area of the rectangle and the semicircle. We need to find the perimeter of the remaining shape.Visualizing the ProblemSolution Steps * Find the length of AB:ย ย * Area of the semicircle = 72ฯ sq cmย ย * Area of a full circle = 2 * Area of a semicircle = 144ฯ sq cmย ย * Radius of the circle (or half of AB) = โ(Area of circle / ฯ) = โ(144ฯ / ฯ) = 12 cmย ย * Length of AB (diameter) = 2 * radius = 24 cm * Find the length of BC:ย ย * Area of the rectangle = 768 sq cmย ย * Length of BC = Area / AB = 768 / 24 = 32 cm * Calculate the perimeter of the leftover portion:ย ย * Perimeter = (Length of BC + CD + DA) + (Circumference of the semicircle)ย ย * Circumference of the semicircle = ฯ * radius = 12ฯ cmย ย * Perimeter = (32 + 24 + 32) + 12ฯ = 88 + 12ฯ cmFinal AnswerThe perimeter of the leftover portion is 88 + 12ฯ cm.Therefore, the correct answer is D.
