The answer:
<span>the two triangles are similar
in addition, the line UV is parallel to line BC, so we can use the theorem of Thales for proving the following ratios:

AV /AC = AU/ AB= UV/ BC
372/589=20x +80  / AB = 444 / 703

</span>so we get    (372/589) AB - 80 =  20x, and x = ( (372/589) AB - 80  ) / 20

exact value of x depends on the value of AB

Answer:

The most correct option is;

(B) 958.2 ft.²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, the dimension of each square = 3 ft.²

Therefore, the length of the sides of the square = √3 ft.

Based on the above dimensions, the dimension of the small semicircle is found by counting the number of square sides ti subtends as follows;

The dimension of the diameter of the small semicircle = 10·√3

Radius of the small semicircle = Diameter/2 = 10·√3/2 = 5·√3

Area of the small semicircle = (π·r²)/2 = (π×(5·√3)²)/2 = 117.81 ft.²

Similarly;

The dimension of the diameter of the large semicircle = 10·√3 + 2 × 6 × √3

∴ The dimension of the diameter of the large semicircle = 22·√3

Radius of the large semicircle = Diameter/2 = 22·√3/2 = 11·√3

Area of the large semicircle = (π·r²)/2 = (π×(11·√3)²)/2 = 570.2 ft.²

Area of rectangle = 11·√3 × 17·√3 = 561

Area, A of large semicircle cutting into the rectangle is found as follows;

A_{(segment \, of \, semicircle)} = \frac{1}{4} \times (\theta - sin\theta) \times r^2

Where:

\theta = 2\times tan^{-1}( \frac{The \, number \, of  \, vertical  \, squrare  \, sides  \ cut  \,  by  \  the  \  large  \,  semicircle}{The \, number \, of  \, horizontal \, squrare  \, sides  \ cut  \,  by  \  the  \  large  \,  semicircle} )

\therefore \theta = 2\times tan^{-1}( \frac{10\cdot \sqrt{3} }{5\cdot \sqrt{3}} ) = 2.214

Hence;

A_{(segment \, of \, semicircle)} = \frac{1}{4} \times (2.214 - sin2.214) \times (11\cdot\sqrt{3} )^2 = 128.3 \, ft^2

Therefore; t

The area covered by the pavers = 561 - 128.3 + 570.2 - 117.81 = 885.19 ft²

Therefor, the most correct option is (B) 958.2 ft.².
