The lowest cost of the tiles for George, for coring the considered triangular floor with the tiles of rate £39.95 per meter sq. is £226.3 approximately.
How can we interpret measurement of something?
Remember that volume, area, length etc all are measured relatively.
If you are 1.7 meters tall, then you're height is measured relative to meters. This is called unit of the measurement. It means that if we collect 1 meter and 0.7 meters too,they together will be equally tall as you.
Similarly, if we say that a triangle has area of 40 square inches, then it means that its area is equal to 40 squares of 1 inch sides.
In the same way, volume is measured usually relative to unit cubes. Like how many unit cubes (cubes with 1 unit length of their sides) can be fitted (without any overlap or gap, but can be sliced to make them fit inside) inside the considered shape.
For this case, the tiles we will use will have the same area as the area of the triangular floor.
The triangular floor is of height and base of size 305 cm and 371.5 cm
Since the price rate of tiles is in meter sq, so it would be better if we convert the legths specified in meters.
100 cm = 1 m
1 cm = 1/100 m
305 cm = 305/100 = 3.05 m
371.5 cm = 3.715 m
The area of a triangle is half of the product of its base and height.
Thus, we get:
Area of tiles that will be used = area of the considered triangular floor =
[tex]\dfrac{3.05 \times 3.715}{2} \approx 5.665 \: \rm m^2[/tex]
Since 1 sq. m cost £39.95, therefore, 5.665 sq. meters will cost [tex]5.665 \times 39.95 \approx 226.3 \: \rm euros[/tex]
Thus, the lowest cost of the tiles for George, for coring the considered triangular floor with the tiles of rate £39.95 per meter sq. is £226.3 approximately.
