Mr. Mayfeld is designing a sign for his ice cream shop. The sign will be a shape consisting of a semicircle and an isosceles triangle that he will paint to look like a cone with a scoop of ice cream. He will cut the figure out of a rectangular piece of plywood measuring 2 ft by 4 ft, as shown. The shaded regions will be cut away. If BE = 3BG and $\overline{AB}$ is parallel to $\overline{CE}$ , what is the total area of the resulting figure? Express your answer as a decimal to the nearest tenth.

A square is inscribed in a circle of radius 5 units. In each of the four regions bounded by a side of the square and the smaller circular arc joining the endpoints of that side, a square is drawn so that one side lies on the side of the larger square and the two opposite vertices lie on the circle, as shown. What is the total area of the five squares? Express your answer to the nearest whole number.
