Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Length</em></u>

1 inch = 25 feet

7 1/4 inches = x feet

1 * x = 25 * 7 1/4

x = 25 * 7.25

Length = 181.25 feet

The length is 181.25

<em><u>hypotenuse length</u></em>

The diagonal = 10 1/2 inches

The diagonal = 10.5 inches

hypotenuse = 10.5 * 25 = 262.5 feet

<em><u>Width</u></em>

L^2 + W^2 = Diagonal^2

181.25² + W² = 262.5²

32851.5625 + W²  =  68906.25   Subtract 32851.5625 from both sides

W² =  68906.25 - 32851.5625

W^2 = 36054.6875                       Take the square root of both sides

W = 189.88

<u><em>Area</em></u>

Area = L * W

Area = 181.25 * 189.88

Area = 34415.88 square feet.
