Note: As you can see on the attached picture, I've split the shape into three chunks. By comparing the sides and using some subtraction I came up with some information that will make the problem easier and wrote it in purple. If you have any problems following my logic there, feel free to send me a message of comment under this and I'll elaborate.

Left Most Chunk:
-The formula for finding the area of a circle is A=πr^2. In this problem we are finding 1/2th of a circle so the formula would look like A=1/2(πr^2).
-Radius: 9
-Work:
A=1/2(πr^2)
A=1/2(π9^2)
A=1/2(π81)
Keeping in mind to use 3.14 for pi as one of your other questions requested...
A=1/2(254.34)
A=127.17 sq ft

Middle Chunk:
-This is basic area finding (Length x Width)
-Work:
A = l x w
A = 15 x 4
A = 60

Right Most Chunk:
-This is basic area finding (Length x Width)
-Work:
A = l x w
A = 3 x 6
A = 18

Total Area:
-Work:
127.17+60+18= 305.27

Answer:
305.27 square feet
