Solve the following problem, a town has a swimming pool shaped as in the diagram. What is the area of the swimming pool in square yards and on the base we have 3 yards and on the left side we have 3 yards on the right side. We have 8 yards and on the top we have 7 yards so would be answer be 30 yd.² 56 yd.² 44 yd.² or 65 yd.²
To find the area of the swimming pool, we first need to find the dimensions of each side of the pool.
The base is 3 yards, the left and right sides are 3 yards each, and the top is 7 yards. This means that the width of the pool is 3 + 3 = 6 yards and the length of the pool is 7 yards.
Now, to find the area of the pool, we multiply the width by the length:
Area = Width x Length
Area = 6 yards x 7 yards
Area = 42 square yards
Therefore, the area of the swimming pool is 42 square yards. The closest answer is 44 yd.².
