Answer:
72 sq. mi
Step-by-step explanation:
Breaking this down, we have 2 right triangles with sides of 3, 4, and 5 miles, and 3 rectangles with dimensions 3 x 5, 4 x 5, and 5 x 5 miles. Remember that the area of a triangle is 1/2 x b x h , where b and h are the triangle's base and height. The base and height of the triangles at the bases of the figure are 3 and 4, so each triangle has an area of 1/2 x 3 x 4 = 1/2 x 12 = 6 sq. mi, or 6 + 6 = 12 sq. mi together.
Onto the rectangles, we can find their area by multiplying their length by their width. Since the width of these rectangles is the same for all three - 5 mi - we can make our lives a little easier and just "glue" the lengths together, giving us a longer rectangle with a length of 3 + 4 + 5 = 12 mi. Multiplying the two, we find the area of the rectangles to be 5 x 12 = 60 sq. mi.
Adding this area to the triangle's area gives us a total area of 12 + 60 = 72 sq. mi.
Answer:
809.4cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Systematic error = 3.8cm (The measured length is always more than the actual length.)
Most probable dimension :
Width = 85.7 cm
Length = 123.5 cm
Hence most probable area of Rectangle :
Area = Length × Width
Area = 85.7cm × 123.5cm = 10583.95 cm²
Dimension due to Systematic error :
Length = (85.7cm + 3.8cm) = 89.5cm
Width = (123.5cm + 3.8cm) = 127.3cm
Area = Length × width
Area = ( 89.5cm × 127.3) = 11393.35cm²
Systematic error of the area :
value of area with Systematic error - Probable value of area :
11393.35cm² - 10583.95 cm² = 809.4cm²
The answer is 55.75! Trust me I took a test on this and its the right one.
