6. In square ABCD below with side lengths 6 cm, two semicircles are centered on the midpoints of sides AD and BC using segments AD and BC as their diameters. Two more semicircles are centered on sides AB and CD such that these semicircles are each tangent to the larger two semicircles centered on segments AD and BC. The area outside these four semicircles and inside the square is shaded. What is the total area of the shaded region? Use 3.1415 as an estimation for π and express your answer as a decimal to the nearest tenth.
