An oval track is made by erecting semicircles on each end of a 50 m by 100 m rectangle. Find the length of the track and the area enclosed by the track.
The length of track is 357 m.
----------
The diameter of the semicircles = 50 meters --> ~357 meters length.
-------
The area enclosed by the track is ... m ^2 ?
The area = the area of the rectangle + the area of a circle with diameter of 50 m.
