12.7  
Using the Pythagorean theorem, you can easily calculate the length of BC.
So: 
BC = sqrt(12^2 - 6^2) = sqrt(144 - 36) = sqrt(108) = 10.39230485  
Now consider triangle BCD. You know all three angles and one side. Using the law of sines you know that ratio of the sine of each angle over the opposite side is constant. So: 
BC/sin(55) = CD/sin(90) 
BC/sin(55) = CD/sin(90) 
sin(90)BC/sin(55) = CD 
1*BC/sin(55) = CD 
BC/sin(55) = CD 
10.39230485/0.819152044 = CD 
12.68666167 = CD 
12.7 = CD

A rectangular piece of land to be developed as a memorial park has an area of 75 m^2. The length of the lot is three times the w
Lelechka [254]

Let length = l

width = w

length = 3 times width = 3w

Area of the land = 75 sq. m

Area = length × width = 3w×w = 75

3w²=75

w²=25

w=5 m

length = 3×15 = 15m

Now lets make the figure with the path of width x meters

(Refer the attached figure for easy understanding)

The inner length is the length of the rectangle reduced by x meters on either side due to the path

that is 15-x-x = 15-2x

the inner width is the width reduced by x meters in either side

= 5-x-x = 5-2x

Now lets calculate the inner area = inner length × inner width

(15-2x)×(5-2x)

= 75-30x-10x+4x^{2}

= 75-40x+4x^{2} sq. m

Now the function to calculate the cost

f(x) is given by $3.00 × area of the inner land

f(x) = 3 × {75-40x+4x²)

= 225-120x+12x²

or

= 12x²-120x+225
