The distance between the two inner parallel line
segments is 60 m and they are each 106 m long. If
the track is 10 m wide, find :
(i) the distance around the track along its inner edge
(ii) the area of the track.
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer
The distance around the track along its inner edge
=EF+HG + circumference of semicircle with diameter EH+circumference of semicircle with diameter FG
circumference of semicircle with diameter EH + Circumference of semicircle with diameter FG
=2×π×30=60πm
∴ The distance around the track along its inner edge
=60π+106+106
=

2804
m
∴ Area of track = Area of rectangle ABFE + Area of rectangle HGCD + (Area of semicircle with diameter AD − Area of semicircle with diameter EH) + (Area of semicircle with diameter BC − Area of semicircle with diameter FG)
=(106×10)+(106×10)+(
