The diameter of each semi-circle = one side of the rectangle

The circumference of a semi-circle = $$\frac{πd}{2}$$

Arc AB has length $$6π$$
$$6π =\frac{πd}{2}$$
$$d = 12$$ = side AB = length of rectangle ABCD

Arc BC has length $$4π$$
$$4π =\frac{πd}{2}$$
$$d = 8$$ = side BC = width of rectangle

Rectangle area = L*W =
$$(12*8) = 96$$
