Question

A contemporary building has a window in the shape of a parallelogram with a base of 90 in and an adjacent side of 40 in. How many inches of trim are needed to surround the​ window?

Answer 1

260 inches of trim are needed to surround the​ window.

What is the surface area?

The total land area of all the faces of a three-dimensional object is its surface area. When we wish to wrap something in real life, we employ the notion of surface areas of distinct things.

Actually, all we need is a trim that is the same size as our window and equal to the parallelogram's circumference, which is

The sum of the side is;

⇒Length of lower side + Length of the upper side

⇒ 90+90

⇒180 inches

The sum of adjacent sides;

Sum of adjacent sides  =  40+40

Sum of adjacent sides  = 80 inches

The length you should trim is needed to surround the​ window is found as;

⇒ 180 inches + 80 inches

⇒260 inches

Hence,260 inches of trim are needed to surround the​ window.
