Hello!
To find the area, we use the formula A=pir², where pi=3.14 and r= the radius.
To solve, we find half of the diameter, which is the radius. Half of 53 is 26.5. We square this number and then multiply it by pi. 26.5·26.5=702.25. Now we multiply by pi. 702.25·3.14=2,205.065.
Our final answer is about 2,205.1 cm².
I hope this helps!
Given :
A boat is being pulled into a dock with a rope attached to the boat at water level. When the boat is 12 feet from the dock, the length of the rope form the boat to the dock is 3 feet longer than twice the height of the dock above the water.
To Find :
The height of the dock.
Solution :
This will make a right angle triangle as given in link below .
Now , applying Pythagoras theorem :

Now , h = 5 or h = -9 .
Now , height cannot be negative .
So , height of the dock is 5 ft .
Hence , this is the required solution .
X-2 or 5-2 because 2 fewer you would need to subtract two from the amount you ate
