i am a mathematics teacher. if anything to ask please pm me

More information about the semi-circles needed. 

But! 2 semi-circles make a whole circle, and the area for the circle follows the formula 2xpixr^2 
(that's two pi r squared) 

Measure the radius, plug it into the formula, then you'll know the area o the two semi circles.. 
Then you can subtract that from the area of the paper which is 34x16.
