Answer:

The 8 square meters represent the product of the height by the width of the wall and therefore, its area.

Step-by-step explanation:

Ginnie is going to paint a wall and measures the height and the width, the walls are usually in the form of a rectangle or square. To find the area of both we need to multiply the height by the width (in the case of the square both are the same) and this will give us the total amount of paint that we need to paint the wall.

In this example, Ginnie finds that she needs enough paint to cover 8 square meters, therefore, these 8 square meters represent the product of the height by the width (that we don't know but it doesn't matter) of the wall and therefore, its area.

Formula for the area of the triangle:

1/2 bh

b = base

h = height

#6.

Area = 36 in²

Base = 18 in

36 = 1/2(18)h

36 = 9h

36 ÷ 9 = h

4 = h

height = 4 in

#7.

Area = 2 ft²

Height = 1 ft

2 = 1/2 b (1)

2 = 1/2 b

2 ÷ 1/2 = b

4 = b

Base = 4 ft

#8.

Area = 42 in²

Base = 12 in

42 = 1/2 (12) h

42 = 6h

42 ÷ 6 = h

7 = h

Height = 7 in

Notice that the answers have no exponents (²). That is because they are used only on the area of shapes as units.

Since you find the area by multiplying things together, for example x · x = x², the exponent is there.

You do not need to worry about this being in the calculation. This will just be in units such as:

cm²

ft²

in²

m²

Just remember to use these exponents in the units for the areas.

Answer:

Area = 3,656.6 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area enclosed by the track is composed of two semicircles and a rectangle.

Area = area of two semicircles + area of rectangle

= 2(½*πr²) + L*W

Where,

radius of semicircle (r) = ½of 40 m = 20 m

Length of rectangle (L) = 60 m

Width of rectangle (W) = 40 m

Plug in the values

Area = 2(½*π*20²) + 60*40

Area = 400π + 2,400

Area = 3,656.6 m² (aooroximated to nearest tenth)
