A farm covers land in the shape of a trapezium. The length of the northern boundary of the farm is 265 m and length of the south

ern boundary is 180 m. The perpendicular distance from the northern end to the southern end is 90 m.
a Draw a diagram of the farm and find its area to the nearest square metre.
b Write your answer to part a to the nearest hectare.
c The farmer decides to purchase his neighbour's farm, which is in the shape of a rectangle but has the same area as his farm. What are possible dimensions neighbour's farm? Give your answer in metres.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

<u>Givens</u>

b1 = 265

b2 = 180

h  = 90

<u>Formula</u>

Area = (b1 + b2)*h / 2

<u>Solution</u>

Area = (265 + 180) * 90 / 2

Area = 445 * 90 / 2

Area = 40050 / 2

Area = 20025 square meters

Part B

1 hectare = 10000 square meters

x hectare = 20025 square meters         Cross multiply

x * 10000 = 20025 * 1                             Divide by 10000

x  = 20025 / 10000

x = 2.0025

Rounded to the nearest hectare that would be 2

Part C

The best shape is a square.

That would mean that the area is given by

s^2 = 20025

sqrt(s^2) = sqrt(20025)

s = 141.51

Each side of the rectangle (square) = 141.51

Your parents decide they would like to install a rectangular swimming pool in the backyard. There is a 15-foot by 20-foot rectan
Lilit [14]

Answer:

  • perimeter: 46 ft
  • area: 126 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the 3 ft edge is on both sides of the pool, each dimension of the pool is 6 ft shorter than the corresponding dimension of the space. The pool will be 15 ft -6 ft = 9 ft in one direction and 20 ft -6 ft = 14 ft in the other direction.

The perimeter of the pool is the sum of its side lengths:

  P = 9 ft + 14 ft + 9 ft + 14 ft = 2(9 ft +14 ft) = 2(23 ft)

  P = 46 ft

__

The area of the pool is the product of its length and width:

  A = (14 ft)(9 ft) = 126 ft²

The perimeter and area are 46 ft and 126 ft², respectively.
