12,900 BTU's are required to cool the room effectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

We must calculate the area of the entire shape to determine the minimum BTU's required to cool the room effectively.

It is made up of a semi-circle a rectangle, and a trapezoid.

Step 2:

The area of a semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} .

Here, the diameter is 20 feet so the radius is 10 feet.

The area of the semi-circle =\frac{ \pi r^{2} }{2} =\frac{ (\pi) (10^{2}) }{2} = 157.079 square feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w).

The length of the rectangle is 22 feet and the width is 20 feet.

The area of a rectangle = (l)(w) =(22)(20) = 440 square feet.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{a+b}{2} (h).

Here a=12, b= 20, h= 3.

The area of a trapezoid =\frac{12+20}{2} (3) = 48 square feet.

Step 3:

The total area of the floor plan =157.079+440+48 = 645.079 square feet.

If 20 BTU's are required for a single square foot,

The number of BTU's for 645.079 square feet = (645.079)(20)=12,901.58 BTU's.

Rounding this off, we get 12,900 BTU's required  to cool the room effectively.

Find the height of the triangle.
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

The value of x = 3.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula:

Sin ∅ = Opposite side /Hypotenuse

From the figure we can see a right angled triangle.

One angle is given, hypotenuse = 10 and height = x.

To find the value of x

sin 20 = Opposite side/hypotenuse = x/10

x = 10 * sin 20

 = 10 * 0.342 = 3.42

Therefore the value of x = 3.42

3 pounds of lawn seeds cover 1800 ft.². How many 4 pound bags are needed to cover 8400 ft.²
vlada-n [284]
1800/3 = 600
Every pound covers 600 square feet
8400/600 = 14
<span>14/4 = 3.5 (round up) so it would become 4.
</span>

You would need 4 bags. 

I hope this helps!
