Answer:
He has a total of 32 cones
Step-by-step explanation:
In this item, it is assumed that since the pattern is cut out of the paper which is usually a rectangle then, the shape of the pattern is also rectangle. The perimeter of the rectangle is,
P = 2L + 2W
The area is equal to,
Area = L x W
If we assume that length and width are equal, in order to maximize the space.
1600 cm² = L x L
The value of L from the equation is 40 cm.
If it is rational, it has a terminating decimal or a repeated decimal number (ex. 56, or 1.25, or 3.666...)
If it is irrational, it is an ongoing number with no pattern (ex. 3.14159265... Which is pi)
16 squared = 256
14 squared = 196
256 + 196 = 452.
