Question

Mariko has a bedroom wall that is shaped like a trapezoid with a height of 8 ft, a top base of 10 ft, and a bottom base of 13 ft. In the middle of this wall is a circular window whose radius is 2 ft.What is the area of the wall without the window?

Answer 1

The area of the trapezoid is
A = 1/2 (8)(10 + 13) minus the area of the Circe A = pi(2)^2. This means the area of the wall without the window is 92 - 4pi ft^2
