Answer 2

Answer:

C=hypotenuse [h]=50 feet

A=[base]=40foot.

B=perpendicular [p]=?

Area =?

we have

By using Pythagoras law

p²+b²=h²

B²=40²=50²

B²=50²-40²

B=√900

B=30feet

we have

Area of triangle =½×A×B=½×30×40=600feet²

the roped off area is 600 square feet.

it is a right angled triangle.
