Chapter 8: Q. 37 (page 541)

The dimensions of home plate at any major league baseball stadium are shown. Find the area of home plate.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The area of the baseball home plate is216.5in2

Step by step solution

01

Given information

We are given

02

We divide the image in two parts A triangle and a rectangle

We get,

03

Find the area of triangle

First we calculate

s=12(12+12+17)s=20.5

Now area of triangle can be given as

K=s(s-a)(s-b)(s-c)K=20.5(20.5-12)(20.5-12)(20.5-17)K=20.5(8.5)(8.5)(3.5)K=5183.9375K=72in2

04

Area of rectangle

We have

A=l脳bA=8.5脳17A=144.5in2

05

Find the area of the baseball plate

The area can be given as

Kb=K+AKb=72+144.5Kb=216.5in2

06

Conclusion

Area of the baseball plate is216.5in2

Constructing a Highway U.S. 41, a highway whose primary directions are north鈥搒outh, is being constructed along the west coast of Florida. Near Naples, a bay obstructs

the straight path of the road. Since the cost of a bridge is prohibitive, engineers decide to go around the bay. The illustration shows the path that they decide on and the measurements taken. What is the length of highway needed to go around the bay?

an object attached to a coiled spring is pulled down a distance a from its rest position and then released. Assuming that the motion is simple harmonic with period T, write an equation that relates the displacement d of the object from its rest position after t seconds. Also assume that the positive direction of the motion is up:

a=10,T=3seconds
