Question 146596: Hardwood flooring costs $90.00 per square meter. How much will it cost (to the nearest dollar) to cover the dance floor shown in the figure just below with hardwood flooring?
The figure is of a capsule-shaped dance floor that has two semicircles on opposite ends and they have a radius of 20 feet each. The middle of the dance floor is a rectangle with a length of 20 meters.
******************************************************************************
So what I did first was use convert the 20 ft to meters which equalled apporximately 65.6 m each. Then I used the formula d= 2r to find the width of the rectangles which came out to 131.2 m...then I got stuck!!!!
