The coordinate plane shows the floor plan for a swimming pool. What is the area of the pool’s border?

we know that
The area of a rectangle is equal to
[tex]A=L*W[/tex]
where
L is the length side of the rectangle
W is the width side of the rectangle
see the attached figure with letters to better understand the problem
The area of the pool's border is equal to the area of rectangle ABCD minus the area of rectangle EFGH
The formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to
[tex]d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}[/tex]
Step 1
Find the distance AB
Let
[tex]A(0,12)\ B(8,18)[/tex]
substitute the values in the formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(18-12)^{2}+(8-0)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(6)^{2}+(8)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{100}[/tex]
[tex]dAB=10\ m[/tex]
Step 2
Find the distance BC
Let
[tex]B(8,18)\ C(17,6)[/tex]
substitute the values in the formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(6-18)^{2}+(17-8)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-12)^{2}+(9)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{225}[/tex]
[tex]dBC=15\ m[/tex]
Step 3
Find the distance EF
Let
[tex]E(3,12)\ F(7,15)[/tex]
substitute the values in the formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(15-12)^{2}+(7-3)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(3)^{2}+(4)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{25}[/tex]
[tex]d.EF=5\ m[/tex]
Step 4
Find the distance FG
Let
[tex]F(7,15)\ G(13,7)[/tex]
substitute the values in the formula
[tex]d=\sqrt{(7-15)^{2}+(13-7)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{(-8)^{2}+(6)^{2}}[/tex]
[tex]d=\sqrt{100}[/tex]
[tex]dFG=10\ m[/tex]
Step 5
Find the area of the pool's border
The area of the pool's border is equal to the area of rectangle ABCD minus the area of rectangle EFGH
Area of the rectangle ABCD
[tex]A1=AB*BC=10\ m*15\ m=150\ m^{2}[/tex]
Area of the rectangle EFGH
[tex]A2=EF*FG=5\ m*10\ m=50\ m^{2}[/tex]
Area of the pool's border
[tex]A=A1-A2=150\ m^{2}-50\ m^{2}=100\ m^{2}[/tex]
therefore
the answer is
[tex]100\ m^{2}[/tex]
The area of the pool’s border is 100 square meters.
Given
The coordinate plane shows the floor plan for a swimming pool.
The perimeter of the swimming pool is given by subtracting the area of the pool from the area of the pool deck to get the exact pool deck area without the pool in it.
The area of the pool is given by;
[tex]\rm Area = length \times width[/tex]
Where the length of the pool is 10 and the width was 5.
Then,
[tex]\rm Area = length \times width\\\\\rm Area = 10 \times 5\\\\\rm Area = 50[/tex]
The area of the pool deck is given by;
The length was 15 and the width was 10.
[tex]\rm Area = length \times width\\\\\rm Area = 15 \times 10\\\\\rm Area = 150[/tex]
Therefore,
The area of the pool’s border is;
= 150 - 50 = 100 square meters
Hence, The area of the pool’s border is 100 square meters.
