Question

- What is the area of the giant Americanflag shown? All stripes are thesame height39 ft52 ft14 ft

Answer 1

We have:

Area of the American flag is:

`A=\text{length}* width`

Therefore, the length is

`\text{length}=39+52=91`

This is, the length = 91 ft.

For the width, we have 13 stripes on the flag:

`4*13=52`

The width = 52 ft

Next, the area of the giant American flag:

`A=91*52=4732`

Answer: 4732 ft^2
