Answer:
To find the total length of the frieze used in the room, we need to calculate the perimeter of the walls at eye level and then subtract the lengths where the door and window are located.
Given:
Length of the room (L) = 3.5 meters
Width of the room (W) = 4.8 meters
Width of the door (D) = 80 cm = 0.8 meters
Width of the window (Wd) = 1.3 meters
Step 1: Calculate the perimeter of the walls at eye level (P_wall).
P_wall = 2(L + W) = 2(3.5 + 4.8) meters
Step 2: Calculate the lengths where the door and window are located (L_door and L_window).
L_door = W (since the door is on one of the shorter sides)
L_door = 4.8 meters
L_window = L (since the window is on one of the longer sides)
L_window = 3.5 meters
Step 3: Calculate the total length of the frieze used in the room (L_frieze).
L_frieze = P_wall - (L_door + L_window)
L_frieze = [2(3.5 + 4.8)] - (4.8 + 3.5) meters
Now, let's do the calculations:
L_frieze = [2(8.3)] - 8.3 meters
L_frieze = 16.6 - 8.3 meters
L_frieze = 8.3 meters
The total length of the frieze used in the room is 8.3 meters.
