The first purpose that Richard's soliloquy appears to serve is to reveal the motivations and personality of the character - we can see that he hates himself because he was basically a hunchback, so he was pretty self-conscious about it. He also reveals in the first scene what he intends to do throughout the play.
As for the second purpose, I'd choose the answer - it informs the audience about the background of the plot, as it gives us reasons why Richard decided to do what he did.

We can complete the sentences considering that the past continuous indicates the action that was taking place when another action happened (simple past).
- Were... driving? / stopped
<h3>What is the simple past tense?</h3>
The simple past tense is the form of the verb we use to indicate that an action took place in the past. We use the simple past tense when the action has already finished.
Examples:
- Affirmative: I saw you at the party last night.
- Negative: I didn't see you at the party last night.
- Interrogative: Did you see me at the party last night?
<h3>What is the past continuous tense?</h3>
The past continuous tense is used to indicate that an action had a longer duration in the past, that is, that it started in the past, lasted for a while, and then ended.
Examples:
- Affirmative: She was watching her favorite cartoon.
- Negative: She wasn't watching her favorite cartoon.
- Interrogative: Was she watching her favorite cartoon.
The two tenses can be used in the same sentence to indicate that one action - simple past - interrupted another action - past continuous - or happened while the other action was taking place.
Example:
- I was cooking when someone rang the doorbell.

Answer:
Outer surface area of this house = 187.85 yards²
Explanation:
Given:
Side = 6.5 yards
Height = 5.6 yards
Find:
Outer surface area of this house
Computation:
Outer surface area of this house = 2[lb + bh + hl] - lb
Outer surface area of this house = 2[(6.5)(6.5) + (6.5)(5.6) + (5.6)(6.5)] - (6.5)(6.5)
Outer surface area of this house = 2[42.25 + 36.4 + 36.4] - 42.25
Outer surface area of this house = 2[115.05] - 42.25
Outer surface area of this house = 187.85 yards²
