Answer:
To calculate the cost of painting the top surface of 20 engine parts, we need to find the surface area of one engine part and then multiply it by 20.
To find the surface area, we need to find the length of the curved surface. We can do this by using the Pythagorean theorem to find AB and then use that to find the circumference of the curved surface.
AB^2 = BO^2 + AO^2 = 9 + 36 = 45
AB = sqrt(45) = 3 sqrt(5)
Circumference = 2 * pi * AB = 2 * pi * 3 sqrt(5) = 6 pi sqrt(5)
Using the fact that the reflex angle BÔC is 240 degrees, we can find the length of the curved surface:
240° / 360° = 2/3 of the circumference
Curved surface length = 2/3 * 6 pi sqrt(5) = 4 pi sqrt(5)
Finally, we can find the surface area of one engine part:
Surface area = (2 * 6 * 3) + (4 pi sqrt(5) * 6) = 36 + (24 pi sqrt(5))
To paint 20 engine parts, the cost would be:
20 * surface area * 15p = 20 * 36 + 20 * 24 pi sqrt(5) * 15p = 720 + (24 * 20 * 15 * pi * sqrt(5)) p = 720 + 720 pi sqrt(5) p
Since 1 pound is equal to 100 pence, the cost in pounds would be:
720 + 720 * pi * sqrt(5) / 100 = 720 + 720 * 0.177 / 100 = 720 + 1.264
So, the cost to paint the top surface of 20 engine parts would be 721.264 pounds.
