A rectangular garden measures 10 feet by 6 feet. A semi-circular patio is added to one of the 6-foot sides of the garden. What is the approximate total area of the garden and patio? (Use π ≈ 3.14)

A 60.00 square feet
B 74.13 square feet
C 88.26 square feet
D 99.25 square feet

✓ Correct Answer: Option B

Area of rectangle = 10 × 6 = 60 sq ft. For the semi-circle, diameter = 6 ft, so radius = 3 ft. Area of semi-circle = (1/2)πr² = 0.5 × 3.14 × (3)² = 14.13 sq ft. Total area = 60 + 14.13 = 74.13 sq ft.
