Step-by-step explanation:
a,b) you can place all 17 in the middle and both circle will have 17 each. then remove 2 and place one each on separate sides. you can do this 8 times so that at the you'll end up with 1 in the middle and 8 each on separate sides.
the ways to do is then 9.
OK so we have a combination of trig functions, the quotient rule, and chain rule. How would we set this up using quotient rule to begin with?
Answer:
Welll....from the diagram, you can see you have two triangles (one on each side)
area of triangle = 1/2 base*height = 1/2 * 2 x 10 = 10 ft2 each
then you are left with a rectangle 13 ft x 10 ft = 130 ft^2
130 + 10 + 10 = 150 ft2
or you could just use the formula for area of parallelogram base * height = 15 * 10 = 150 square feet
