Side opposite 30 = 1/2(hypotenuse) ⇒ 1/2(17) = 8.5
Side opposite 60 = \sqrt{3}(side opposite 30) ⇒ 8.5 \sqrt{3} = 14.72 when rounded 2 decimal places

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

£59.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To solve this problem, we must:

  1. Solve for the length of the fence (aka height)
  2. Find the area of the lawn (trapezoid)
  3. Find the number of cans needed
  4. Find the price of all the cans

Area of a trapezoid, and why the formula works:

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one set of parallel sides known as bases. The other two sides are known as the legs.

To find the area of a trapezoid, we use the formula:

\frac{B_1 + B_2}{2}* h

This works because if we used the formula, we would be duplicating the trapezoid to form a rectangle with a side length of B1 + B2, and a height of h. Since the trapezoid is half of that, we divide by 2.

Solve for height:

The height is unknown but can be found using the Pythagorean Theorem.

The difference between the bases is the length of the bottom leg of the right triangle, and 17 is the hypotenuse.

Difference = 20 - 12 = 8

Hypotenuse = 17

  • 8² + fence² = 17²
  • 64 + fence² = 289
  • 225 = fence²
  • fence = 15

The height is 15

Solve for area:

Now we can solve for the area.

  • A = \frac{B_1 + B_2}{2} * h
  • A = \frac{12 + 20}{2} * 15
  • A = \frac{32}{2} * 15
  • A = 16 * 15 = 240

The area is 240

Cans:

The area of the lawn is 240 square meters. Each can cover 100 square meters.

  • 240 ÷ 100 = 2.4

Since we can't use part of a can, we round up to three whole cans.

The price of 3 cans :

  • 3 * 19.75
  • 59.25

£59.25

The Pythagorean Theorem:

The Pythagorean theorem is a very common geometry formula used to find the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle, given the lengths of the two other bases.

The formula is : a^2 + b^2 = c^2

  • a is a leg
  • b is a leg
  • c is the hypotenuse

A PHN is studying the rate of H1N1 in the community. If there are five cases of H1N1 in the community of 1,000 people, what is t
BigorU [14]

Answer:

0.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The prevalence rate shows the proportion of people that have a disease in a population and to be able to calculate it, you have to divide the number of people that have a disease by the population:

Prevalence rate=(5/1,000)*100

Prevalence rate=0.005*100

Prevalence rate=0.5%

According to this, the answer is that if there are five cases of H1N1 in the community of 1,000 people, the prevalence rate is 0.5%.
