A rain gutter is to be constructed of aluminum sheets of 12 inches wide. After marking off a length of 4 inches from each edge, this length is bent up at an angle 0. The area of the opening may be expressed as the function A0= 16 sin0(cos0+1) if 0=30 what is the area of the opening?

AO = 16 * sin30*(cos 30+1) = 14.93 in^2
