To find the total area of the given shape, we first need to determine the area of the circular part since it is made up of a rectangle and the left and right sides that together form a circle.
1. **Determining the radius of the circle**:
The diameter of the circle is 12 in. Therefore, the radius \( r \) is:
\[
r = \frac{\text{diameter}}{2} = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \text{ in.}
\]
2. **Calculating the area of the circle**:
The area \( A \) of a circle is given by the formula:
\[
A = \pi r^2.
\]
Plugging in the radius:
\[
A = \pi (6^2) = \pi \times 36 \approx 113.097 \text{ in}^2.
\]
3. **Calculating the area of the rectangle**:
If we assume the area of the rectangle is provided or needs to be added to the circular area, we'll need to know the dimensions of that rectangle for a complete answer. However, since the possible answers seem to focus on the total area, we can only calculate the area of the circular part right now.
Since there appears to be no additional information about the dimensions of the rectangle or if it is included in the area options provided, we will proceed with the circle's area.
Now, let's look at the area options provided:
- 413.04
- 300
- 337.68
- 752.16
- 324
- 74
- 900
None of these match the area of the circle, which is approximately 113.097 in².
To summarize, for complete accuracy, we need the dimensions of the rectangle to fully evaluate the shape's total area. Assuming you have access to additional dimensions or needed formulas for determining the rectangle's area, you can proceed to add that to approximately 113.097 in².
If the rectangle adds significant area depending on the layout or is assumed to fill up area rendered by the dimensions, that would be dependent on the situation or specified rectangle dimensions shared in the question. Therefore, I encourage checking against additional data or clarifying for further analyses.

I understand that you're looking for the correct total area among the options provided. Let's analyze the information again carefully.
Since the circular part has a diameter of 12 inches, the area of that circle can be calculated as follows:
1. **Calculate the radius of the circle**:
- Diameter = 12 in
- Radius \( r = \frac{12}{2} = 6 \) in
2. **Calculate the area of the circle**:
\[
A = \pi r^2 = \pi \times (6)^2 = \pi \times 36 \approx 113.097 \text{ in}^2
\]
This part alone is approximately \( 113.097 \) square inches.
Now, we need to consider that the total area might include the rectangle portion. To find the total area (circle + rectangle), we can use the fact that perhaps the sum of the rectangle's area and the circle's area approaches one of the specified options.
Since I initially stated the area of the circle clearly and realized we can’t solve accurately without rectangle dimensions, let’s work with the options you have.
**Finding the additional area needed:**
From the circular area of approximately \( 113.097 \text{ in}^2\), if we denote the area of the rectangle as \( A_r \):
\[
\text{Total Area} = A_c + A_r
\]
Let’s evaluate against the options to find how much more area we need from the rectangle \( A_r \) to match each:
- **For 300**: \( 300 - 113.097 \approx 186.903 \) (area of rectangle needed)
- **For 324**: \( 324 - 113.097 \approx 210.903 \) (area of rectangle needed)
- **For 337.68**: \( 337.68 - 113.097 \approx 224.583 \) (area of rectangle needed)
- **For 413.04**: \( 413.04 - 113.097 \approx 299.943 \) (area of rectangle needed)
- **For 752.16**: \( 752.16 - 113.097 \approx 639.063 \) (area of rectangle needed)
- **For 74**: \( 74 - 113.097 \approx -39.097 \) (not feasible)
- **For 900**: \( 900 - 113.097 \approx 786.903 \) (area of rectangle needed)
Since we can’t determine the rectangle's area directly without its dimensions, it's difficult to verify, but the most reasonable areas would typically cluster the lower and closer around the circle’s area.
**Recommendation**:
Given the significant values and recognizing that the circle is part of a larger contained area, I would suggest focusing on lower values like **300** or **324** as potential totals assuming the rectangle could add that necessary area with consistent dimensions.
If you have any specific assumption about the rectangle's area or dimensions, let me know. Otherwise, for this assessment and with limited details, **300** looks reasonable based on adding a rectangular area near enough.
Please clarify or reconfirm if there are rectangle measurements I can assist with! Good luck on your test!
