Aconcrete patio is

feet wide. it has an area of

square feet. is the concrete slab long enough to fit a 7-foot picnic table without placing the table along the diagonal of the patio? explain.

The length of concrete patio is 6.5 feet which is less than given 7 foot picnic table. So the concrete slab is not enough to fit a 7 foot picnic table

Solution:

Given that concrete patio is feet wide

Area of concrete patio = square feet

Therefore,

Let us find the length of concrete patio

Concrete patio is usually of shape rectangle

Area of concrete patio = length x width

Therefore length of concrete patio is 6.5 feet

So it cannot fit the 7 foot picnic table. Since the length of concrete patio is 6.5 feet which is less than given 7 foot picnic table

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula used in calculating the length of the base of a pyramid is tan(∅) = height/base

To calculate the length of the base of the pyramid,

tan(42°) = 0.9004

Since the height is 71 meters we then multiply it by 2

2 x 71 = 142 meters

Since tan(∅) = height/base

0.9004 = 142/X

We cross multiply

0.9004x = 142

we divide both sides by 0.9004

X = 142/0.9004

X = 157.7

X = 158 feat
