  1. Side of square is 14 cm, therefore, the radius of semicircle is 7 cm.
    Area of semicircle
    = 1/2 × πr² = 1/2 × π(7)² = 1/2 × 22/7 × 7 × 7 = 77 cm²
    Area of square
    = (side)² = (14)² = 196 cm
    Area of shaded region = Area of square – Area of two semicircles
    = 196 – 2 × 77 = 196 – 154 42 cm²
