1 answer:
a. Length of the fence around the field = perimeter of quarter circle = 892.7 ft.
b. The area of the outfield is about 39,584 sq. ft..
<h3>What is the Perimeter of a Quarter Circle?</h3>Perimeter of circle = 2πr
Perimeter of a quarter circle = 2r + 1/4(2πr).
a. The length of the fence around the field = perimeter of the quarter circle fence
= 2r + 1/4(2πr).
r = 250 ft
Plug in the value
The length of the fence around the field = 2(250) + 1/4(2 × π × 250)
= 892.7 ft.
b. Size of the outfield = area of the full field (quarter circle) - area of the infield (cicle)
= 1/4(πR²) - πr²
R = radius of the full field = 250 ft
r = radius of the infield = 110/2 = 55 ft
Plug in the values
Size of the outfield = 1/4(π × 250²) - π × 55²
= 49,087 - 9,503
= 39,584 sq. ft.

Answer:
137 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The shop is rectangular in shape. The area of a rectangle is given by:
Area = length * width
Since the length of the shop = 20 ft and the width = 10 ft, therefore:
Area of the shop = length * width = 20 ft * 10 ft = 200 ft²
The part that would not be tiled is of triangular shape. The area of a triangle is given as:
Area = (1/2) * base * height
The base of the triangle = 18 ft, the height = 7 ft. Hence:
Area of non tiled part = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 18 ft * 7 ft = 63 ft²
The total square feet of tile needed to complete the job = Area of shop - Area of non tiled part
The total square feet of tile needed to complete the job = 200 ft² - 63 ft² = 137 ft²
