PART A

The barn is constructed by the following 2D shapes

Two triangles of height = 4' and base = 20'
Area = 2 × (0.5×4×20) = 80

Two rectangles of length = 20' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 20 × 15 = 600

Two rectangles of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 45' × 15' = 1350

One base of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 45 × 15 = 675

Two rectangles on each on one side of the roof. We have the length = 45'  but not the width. We can work out the width by using Pythagoras theorem

w² = 4² + 10²
w² = 16 + 100
w² = 116
w = √116 = 10.77

Area of the two rectangles on the roof part is = 2 ×10.77 × 45 = 969.33

Total area to paint = 969.33+675+1350+600+80 = 3674.33 ≈ 3700 (to the nearest hundreth)


PART B

Numbers of paint cans needed = 3700 ÷ 57 = 64.9 ≈ 65 cans

PART C

Total cost of paint = 65 × 23.50 = $1527.50

PART D

The barn is constructed by a cuboid and a rectangular prism

V of cuboid = length × width × height
V of cuboid = 20 × 45 × 15
V of cuboid = 13500

V of triangular prism = Area of cross section × depth
V = [0.5×4×20] × 45
V = 1800

Total volume = 1800 + 13500 = 15300

Answer:

PART A

Break up the barn into smaller shapes to find the area of each and then add them together to find the total surface area that he is going to be painting.

Two triangles of height = 4' and base = 20'

A=1/2 (b*h)

Area = 2 × (0.5×4×20) = 80

Two rectangles of length = 20' and width = 15'

Area= L*W

Area = 2 × 20 × 15 = 600

Two rectangles of length = 45' and width = 15'

Area= L*W

Area = 2 × 45' × 15' = 1350

Two rectangles on each on one side of the roof. We have the length = 45'  but not the width. We can work out the width by using Pythagoras theorem

w² = 4² + 10²

w² = 16 + 100

w² = 116

w = √116 = 10.77

Area of the two rectangles on the roof part is = 2 ×10.77 × 45 = 969.33

Total area to paint = 969.33+1350+600+80 = 2999.33 (to the nearest hundredth)

Keep in mind that you are not painting the floor so there would be no need to add in the area of the base which is the floor.  

PART B

Numbers of paint cans needed = 2999.33 ÷ 57 = 52.6 ≈ 53 cans

PART C

Total cost of paint = 53 × 23.50 = $1245.50

PART D

The barn is constructed by a cuboid and a rectangular prism

V of cuboid = length × width × height

V of cuboid = 20 × 45 × 15

V of cuboid = 13500

V of triangular prism = Area of cross section × depth

V = [0.5×4×20] × 45

V = 1800

Total volume = 1800 + 13500 = 15300
