Seem to be all acute angles, if try checking with Pythagorean Theorem formula. You can take 170 foot length as a base. Look for a "height". Choosing to find angle measure x where the 170 foot meets the 80 foot,
or 39.79 degrees
Area of parking lot:
using degrees
The PRICE is given, so use it to find the COST for that area.
