\n" ); document.write( "Well, we'll get the \"AREA\" of the 3 shapes of the recreation room.
\n" ); document.write( "1) Rectangle: \"A%5BR%5D=Length%2AWidth\"
\n" ); document.write( "As per given: \"L=14yds\" & \"W=6yds\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, \"A%5BR%5D=14%2A6=84\"sq.yds
\n" ); document.write( "2) Triangle: \"A%5BT%5D=%281%2F2%29Base%2AHeight\"
\n" ); document.write( "As per given: \"B=6yds\" & \"H=5yds\"
\n" ); document.write( "So, \"A%5BT%5D=%281%2F2%29%286%29%285%29=15\"sq.yds
\n" ); document.write( "3) Square: \"A%5BS%5D=sides%5E2\"
\n" ); document.write( "As per given: \"S=5\"sq yds
\n" ); document.write( "So, \"A%5BS%5D=5%5E2=25yds\"
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore: \"A%5Btotal%5D=A%5BR%5D%2BA%5BT%5D%2BA%5BS%5D=84%2B15%2B25=highlight%28124sqyds%29\"-->Total carpet needed.
\n" ); document.write( ".
\n" ); document.write( "Cost: \"%288.00%2Fcross%28sqyd%29%29%28124cross%28sqyds%29%29\"=$992.00 TOTAL COST
