You can
put this solution on YOUR website!Call the straight part of the track
Call the width
Adding up the stright parts on each side,
The straightaway is twice the width
The circular portions of the track are made up of
1/2 the circumference of a circle with diameter =
on
one end and another 1/2 of a circumference with diameter =
on the other end of the track
If circumference =
,
also,
mi
1 mi = 5280 ft
ft
The area of the track is made up of a rectangle
and 2 half-circles which add up to a whole circle,
area =
The area of the rectangular part is
The total area is
The area of the field to the nearest ft2 is 95,077 ft2
