Answer:
option a
Step-by-step explanation:
in figure 1: 4n+8 = 4×1=4+8=12
figure 2:4n+8 =4×2=8+8=16 and so on
We need to use the calculator, using the tan⁻¹ function:

Using the calculator:

To the nearest tenth:
The side of the barn is made of 2 shapes, a triangle and a rectangle. Find the area of each shape, then add together to find the total area.
To find the area of the triangle, we multiply 1/2 x (triangle base x triangle height), we can find the triangle height by subtracting the height on the right by the height on the left, so 26.5-14.5 = 12.5ft.
The area of the triangle is 1/2 x (22.8x12.5) = 142.5 square ft.
The area of the rectangle is calculated by multiplying one side by the other, which is 22.8x14.5 = 330.6 square feet.
The total area of the side of the barn is 330.6 + 142.5 = 473.1 square feet.
Since we now know the area of the side of the barn, we can find the cost of paint needed. A one gallon paint can covers 350 square feet and costs $20, but we need to paint 473.1 square feet so we'll need to buy a second can. This means we can easily paint the side of the barn with 2 cans, costing $40 in paint.
