Answer:
[tex](a)\ Area = 3765.32[/tex]
[tex](b)\ Area = 4773[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]A_1 = 169in^2[/tex] --- area of each square
[tex]Shade = 4in[/tex]
See attachment for window
Solving (a): Area of the window
First, we calculate the dimension of each square
Let the length be L;
So:
[tex]L^2 = A_1[/tex]
[tex]L^2 = 169[/tex]
[tex]L = \sqrt{169[/tex]
[tex]L=13[/tex]
The length of two squares make up the radius of the semicircle.
So:
[tex]r = 2 * L[/tex]
[tex]r = 2*13[/tex]
[tex]r = 26[/tex]
The window is made up of a larger square and a semi-circle
Next, calculate the area of the larger square.
16 small squares made up the larger square.
So, the area is:
[tex]A_2 = 16 * 169[/tex]
[tex]A_2 = 2704[/tex]
The area of the semicircle is:
[tex]A_3 = \frac{\pi r^2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]A_3 = \frac{3.14 * 26^2}{2}[/tex]
[tex]A_3 = 1061.32[/tex]
So, the area of the window is:
[tex]Area = A_2 + A_3[/tex]
[tex]Area = 2704 + 1061.32[/tex]
[tex]Area = 3765.32[/tex]
Solving (b): Area of the shade
The shade extends 4 inches beyond the window.
This means that;
The bottom length is now; Initial length + 8
And the height is: Initial height + 4
In (a), the length of each square is calculated as: 13in
4 squares make up the length and the height.
So, the new dimension is:
[tex]Length = 4 * 13 + 8[/tex]
[tex]Length = 60[/tex]
[tex]Height = 4*13 + 4[/tex]
[tex]Height = 56[/tex]
The area is:
[tex]A_1 = 60 * 56 = 3360[/tex]
The radius of the semicircle becomes initial radius + 4
[tex]r = 26 + 4 = 30[/tex]
The area is:
[tex]A_2 = \frac{3.14 * 30^2}{2} = 1413[/tex]
The area of the shade is:
[tex]Area = A_1 + A_2[/tex]
[tex]Area = 3360 + 1413[/tex]
[tex]Area = 4773[/tex]
