Zorluk: OrtaPerimeter and Area of 2D Figures

A trapezoidal wooden sign has a height of 1818 inches. Its parallel top and bottom edges measure 2424 inches and 3636 inches, respectively. If a rectangular hole measuring 88 inches by 66 inches is cut out of the sign to mount a digital clock, what is the area of the remaining wooden surface in square inches?

Cevap: 492 square inches

Cevap

492
The remaining area is found by subtracting the area of the inner rectangle from the area of the outer trapezoid. The trapezoid area is 12(24+36)×18=540\frac{1}{2}(24 + 36) \times 18 = 540. The rectangle area is 8×6=488 \times 6 = 48. The difference is 540−48=492540 - 48 = 492.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the area of the full trapezoidal sign.
540 square inches
This gives the total area before the hole is cut, using the formula 0.5 * (base1 + base2) * height.
2
Calculate the area of the rectangular cutout.
48 square inches
This represents the area that is removed from the sign, calculated as length * width.
3
Subtract the cutout area from the total area.
492 square inches
Subtracting the removed area from the initial total area gives the area of the remaining solid surface.
