If each square represents a square foot half of it would be .5 so then add all of them. The formula for Area is A=l•w and the Area formula for a triangle is A=hbb/2. Hope this helps :)

Mr. Osterhout is putting trim around the edge of a circular merry-go-round that has a diameter of 15 feet. How much trim does he

Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Given:
circular merry-go-round that has a diameter of 15 feet.

Find: How much trim does he need to buy to put around the edge of the merry-go-round?

We need to find the circumference of the merry-go-round to get the measurement of the trim needed.

Circumference = π d
π = 3.14
d = diameter = 15 feet

Circumference = 3.14 * 15 feet
Circumference = 47.10 feet.

Mr. Osterhout needs to buy 47.10 feet of trim to put around the circular merry-go-round.

The volume of the shape below is 6 square units. Determine the volume of the shape in two different ways.

REY [17]

The volume of the shape is 6 cubic units

<h3>How to determine the volume of the shape?</h3>

<u>Method 1</u>

From the figure, we can see that:

There are 6 cubes in the figure
The dimensions of the cubes are equal
The volume of each cube is 1 cubic unit

So, the volume of the shape is

Volume = Number of cubes * Volume of each cube

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Volume = 6 * 1

Evaluate

Volume = 6

<u>Method 2</u>

From the figure, we can see that:

There are 6 cubes in the figure
2 cubes at the top and 4 at the bottom
The dimensions of the cubes are equal
The volume of each cube is 1 cubic unit

So, the volume of the shape is

Volume = Top cubes + Bottom cubes

This gives

Volume = 2 * Volume of each cube + 4 * Volume of each cube

Substitute the known values in the above equation

Volume = 2 * 1 + 4 * 1

Evaluate

Volume = 6

Hence, the volume of the shape is 6 cubic units
