Concept explainers

Area Computations

The area is the mathematical estimation of the inner space occupied by any shape or object and area computation is the evaluation of how much inner space that particular shape or object has utilized. Simple applications include calculating the area of wall for the quantity of paint or plaster to be applied on it, area calculations for construction of a trapezoidal dam and how much material is required, calculating the area of a circle to determine the range or distance of wheels that they are capable of covering due to varied radii and so on.

A steel tape is 100.00 ft long and has a weight of 0.0225 lb/ft and is used to measure a line from A to B in two segments (one full tape length and one partial tape length), supported at the ends only for each of the two segments. The recorded distance is 181.83 ft. The pull at the time of measurement is 12 lb. What is the length of the line corrected for sag? (Assume that no other tape corrections need to be applied.)
