Answer: 337
Step-by-step explanation:
The volume will be the product of the end area and the length of the greenhouse.
The end area consists of 4 triangles and 6 rectangles. This fact is very important.
We can divide half of the greenhouse face along its vertical lines to make two trapezoids. The bases are the length of the vertical lines, and their heights will be respectively 2.2 m and 0.8 m.
Since there are two of each, we can find the end area to be ...
A = 2(1/2)(b1 +b2)(h1) +2(1/2)(b2 +b3)(h2)
A = (4.1 + 3.3)(2.2) +(3.3 + 1.1)(0.8) = 19.8 square meters
V = BH
V= 19.8(17)= 336.6 m^3 which is rounded to 337
Therefore, we have used area to determine the volume. :)
I hope this helps!
