Problem

A courtyard is a rectangle 50 m×32 m50\,\text{m}\times32\,\text{m}. From each of the two 32 m32\,\text{m} sides, a semicircle of radius 16 m16\,\text{m} is cut out. On the middle of each 50 m50\,\text{m} side, a semicircular porch of radius 4 m4\,\text{m} is added externally. What is the area of the resulting shape? (a) 1600+240π m21600+240\pi\,\text{m}^{2} (b) 1600−256π m21600-256\pi\,\text{m}^{2} (c) 1600−240π m21600-240\pi\,\text{m}^{2} (d) 1600−48π m21600-48\pi\,\text{m}^{2}
