Question

Can someone help me understand this.​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Perimeter is the measure around the outside of the field while area is a measure of what's inside the field. The field has 2 long straight lengths of 120 m each, so now we just need to find the circumference of the whole circle that is made by sticking each of the 2 rounded ends together. The circumference of the whole circle (both rounded ends stuck together) is

C = πd and

C = (3.1415)(50) so

C = 157.075

Now we add in the 2 straight edges of the field to get the perimeter:

P = 120 + 120 + 157.075 and

P = 397.075 m

The area requires that we find the composite area: that is, the area made up by the rectangle measuring 120 x 50, and the area of the circle that is made up of the 2 rounded ends.

The area of the rectangle is length times width: A = 120(50) so A = 6000

The area of the circle is
`A=\pi r^2` so
`A=(3.1415)(25)^2` and the area of the circle is 1963.495.

Add these 2 areas together to get the area of the whole field:

6000 + 1963.495 = 7963.495 meters squared

Answer 2

easy-peasy

Explanation:

Perimeter:

P=2(a+b)

P=2(50+70)

P=2(120

P=240

Area:

A=50*70

A=3,500

I really hope it helped:)
