Respuesta :
She would need 360 square inches of fabric, we know this by using the heron's formula P =100, S = 50
A = (50(50-41)(50-41)(50-18))^.5
A = (50(9^2)(32))^.5
A = 9(50(32))^.5
A = 9(1600)^.5
A = 9*40
A = 360
360*0.15 per piece equals $54
Answers:
360, 54
The amount of material needed by Marta to make the flag is
[tex]\rm \sqrt{(50)\times (d_1-50)(d_2-50)(d_3-50)}[/tex] square inch
The total cost in making the flag is
[tex]\rm 0.15\times\ \sqrt{(50)\times (d_1-50)(d_2-50)(d_3-50)}[/tex] dollars .
Marta is making a flag with given dimensions. The perimeter of the flag is 100 inches
Let us consider that the flag has a triangular shape
According to hero's formula
The area of triangle is given by
[tex]\rm Area = A = \sqrt{s \times (s-a) (s-b) (s-c)}\\where \; s = Semi perimeter\\a, b, c \; are\; the \; sides\; of \; the\; triangle[/tex]
Let us consider that P represents the perimeter
Semi perimeter s = P/2
Since the perimeter of flag is 100 inches
so s = 100/2 = 50
Let the dimensions of triangular shape be [tex]\rm d_1, d_2 \; and\; d_3[/tex]
so Area of the triangular flag becomes
[tex]\rm A= \sqrt{(50)\times (d_1-50)(d_2-50)(d_3-50)}[/tex] square inch
So the amount of material needed to make the flag is
[tex]\rm A= \sqrt{(50)\times (d_1-50)(d_2-50)(d_3-50)}[/tex] square inch
The cost of material = C = $0.15 per square inch
So the total cost in making the flag will be
[tex]\rm C\times A = 0.15\times A = 0.15\times\ \sqrt{(50)\times (d_1-50)(d_2-50)(d_3-50)}[/tex] dollars.
