Hw 27 area of composites

We must find the area of each of the figures shown:
Question 1:
For this case, we have by definition, that the area of a rectangle is given by:
[tex]A = a * b[/tex]
Where a and b are the sides of the rectangle.
The area of the first figure is given by the sum of the areas of three rectangles, then:
[tex]A_ {1} = 6 * 3 + 5 * 3 + 6 * 3\\A_ {1} = 18 + 15 + 18\\A_ {1} =51[/tex]
Thus, the area of the first figure is 51 square centimeters.
Answer:
[tex]51 \ cm ^ 2[/tex]
Question 2:
For this case, we have that by definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:
[tex]A = a * b[/tex]
Where a and b are the sides.
The area of a square is given by:
[tex]A = l ^ 2[/tex]
Where l is the side of the square
The area of the figure is given by the sum of the area of a rectangle and a square:
[tex]A_{2} = 9 * 2 + 3 ^ 3\\A_{2} = 18 + 9\\A_{2} = 27[/tex]
Thus, the area of the second figure is 27 square inches.
Answer:
[tex]27 \ in ^ 2[/tex]
Question 3:
For this case, we have that by definition, the area of a rectangle is given by:
[tex]A = a * b[/tex]
Where a and b are the sides of the rectangle.
While the area of a circle is given by
[tex]A = \pi * r ^ 2[/tex]
Where r is the radius of the circle.
The area of the third figure is found under a subtraction (the area of a rectangle minus the area of the middle of a circle)
So:
[tex]A_ {3} = 50 * 30- \frac {\pi * 15 ^ 2} {2}\\A_ {3} = 1500-112.5 \pi\\A _{3} = 1500-353.43\\A _{3} = 1146.6[/tex]
Thus, the area of the third figure is 1146.6 square feet.
Answer
[tex]1146.6 \ ft ^ 2[/tex]
Question 4:
For this case, the area of the fourth figure is given by the area of a rectangle plus the sum of two halves of areas of a circle.
So:
[tex]A_ {4} = 30 * 15 + \frac {\pi * (7.5) ^ 2} {2} + \frac {\pi * (7.5) ^ 2} {2}\\A_ {4} = 450 + \pi * (7.5) ^ 2\\A_{4} = 450 + 56.25\\A_ {4} = 506.25[/tex]
Thus, the area of the fourth figure is 506.25 square centimeters.
Answer:
[tex]506.25 \ cm ^ 2[/tex]
Question 5:
The area of the last figure is given by the sum of the area of a triangle plus the area of half a circle.
So:
[tex]A_ {5} = \frac {3 * 7} {2} + \frac {\pi * (1.5) ^ 2} {2}\\A_{5} = 10.5 + 3.53\\A_{5} = 14.03[/tex]
Thus, the area of the fifth figure is given by 14.03 square feet.
Answer:
[tex]14.03 \ ft ^ 2[/tex]
