Answer:
169.5 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
See attachment.
In situations like this, ALWAYS (!) make as sketch.
Divide the areas by adding dotted lines on sensible places, and write in the missing numbers for the correct distances.
The only possible difficult one is the triangle, which is the half of a rectangle. So you are dealing with a series of areas of rectangles. That is really easy if you understand what you are doing.
Total area =
area 1 + area 2 + area 3 + area 4
10*4 + 4*7 + 3*13 + (0.5 * 7*17)
40 + 28 + 42 + 59.5
Total area = 169.5 yd²
Answer
13
Step-by-step explanation:
A = pi * r^2
<span>A = 3.14 * 50^2 </span>
<span>A = 7,850 square miles (area of the 50 mile broadcast signal)
A = pi * r^2
A = 3.14 * 75^2
A = </span>17,662.5 = 17,663 square miles (area of the 75 mile relayed signal)
Now we just need to subtract the 50 mile signal from the 75 mile signal, so:
17,663 - 7,850 = <span>9,813 square miles greater
Hope this helps :)
