Answer 1

Given :  Custom drapes are being fitted for a large circular window . window has an 8 ft horizontal shelf with a 2 ft brace that sits in the frame.

To find :  diameter of the window

Solution:

the window has an 8 ft horizontal shelf with a 2 ft brace that sits in the frame.

=> Rectangle with in a circle with dimension = 8 ft * 2 ft

Diagonal of rectangle is diameter of circle

=> Diagonal of rectangle = $\sqrt{8^2 + 2^2} = \sqrt{64 + 4 } = \sqrt{68}$    ft

=> Diameter of window = √68  ft  = 2√17  ft

= 2 * 4.123

= 8.246  ft

Diameter of window =   2√17  ft = 8.246  ft
