Answer:
Assuming the slide is straight - 12 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming the slide is straight - it creates a right triangle with long side 13 feet and one of the short sides of 5 feet. We need to find the other short side.
We know that:

Answer:
The width of the frame is 0.0746 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that after the frame has been attached to the solar collector, the area that is left exposed is
. As we see in the figure, the dimensions of this area are
and 
where
is the width of the frame.
The product of these dimensions must equal the exposed area:

Now since
and
we have:

we expand this and solve for x using the quadratic formula:


we get two solutions:


We take the second solution i.e
, because first one gives a width larger than the dimensions of the solar collector which cannot be possible.
Thus the width of the frame is 0.0746 meters.
