Answer:

Area of the bookmar = 68.56 sq.cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the diameter of each circle is the width of the rectangle.

Therefore, each radius = [tex]\frac{4}{2}[/tex] = 2 cm.

Area of the 2 semi circles = 2 × 0.5 × 3.14 × [tex]2^{2}[/tex]

= 4 × 3.14

= 12.56 sq.cm.

Now, area of the rectangle = length × width

= 14 × 4

= 56 sq.cm

Area of the bookmark = Area of the rectangular part + 2 × (area of the semicircular part)

= 56 + 12.56

= 68.56 sq.cm.
