If the blade alone is 18 inches long to the nearest square inch how much area of the windshield is cleaned by the wiper blade? Answer by joey_quizan(15) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! Sol:
A=Total Area
A=2*31*3.1461*(110/180)=119 sq.in.
a=area cleaned by wiper

Ans: a= 69 sq.in.
