Find the area of the figure with Heron’s formula
1 answer:
Answer:
735 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is a trapezium .The area of the triangle section can be calculated using the Heron's formula.
The other part of the figure will be a square of sides 21 cm by 21 cm
<u>Area of the square section</u>
Area = l²
Area = 21* 21 = 441 cm²
<u>Area of the triangle using Heron's formula</u>
Sides of the triangle are ;
a= 28 cm
c= 35 cm
b = 21 cm -----height of the trapezium
The Heron's formula is given as;
where s is half the perimeter of the triangle
Perimeter of the triangle is given as ;
P= 35 + 28 + 21 =84 cm
s= 84/2 = 42 cm
Total area = 294 + 441 = 735 cm²

Answer:
Average percentage of occupancy = 93%.
Step-by-step explanation:
If a facility has 150 beds, then over a 30 day period they could have as many as 150 x 30 or 4,500 occupied beds. Since over the given 30 day period they only had 4,200 occupied beds, we can find the average percentage of occupancy by dividing the actual number by the expected number and multiplying by 100:
x 100 = 93%
