Boolean Driving Me Crazy

Software Carbide Create

I am trying to combine two objects. A rectangle and a circle to make an object that is square at the top and rounded at the bottom. The rectangle is 2.125 Wide and 5.0 Inches Tall. The circle is 2.125 inches round 1.0625 Radius.

I have tried every combination of the key object and cannot make them combine properly. Either the rectangle disappears or the circle. I got it to work once on another half of the project but cannot replicate. Can someone tell me how to combine these objects properly.

You need to move the circle so that the bottom of the rectangle bisects the circle, then do the boolean sum operation.
