TASK 2 Problem solving
1 Mr J has a rectangular swimming pool in his garden that measures 10 m by 6 m. He is going to
put a path around the pool. The path will be 1 m wide.
Mr J is going to use concrete to make the path. Concrete costs $55 per square metre. How
much will it cost Mr J to make the path?
2 Faisal and Samira have been asked to find the total area of this compound shape as homework.
2.4 m 0.6 m 0.8 m
0.9 m
0.9 m 1.0 m 1.2 m
Here is Faisal’s working
Length of whole rectangle = 0.9 + 0.6 + 1.0 + 0.8 + 1.2 = 4.5 m
Area of whole rectangle = 2.4 × 4.5 = 10.8 m2
0.8 × 0.9 = 0.72 m2 and 0.6 × 0.9 = 0.54 m2
Area cut out of large rectangle = 0.72 + 0.54 = 1.26 m2
Total area = area of large rectangle – area cut out = 10.8 – 1.26 = 9.56 m2
Here is Samira’s working
Length of top rectangle = 0.9 + 0.6 + 1.0 + 0.8 + 1.2 = 4.5 m
Width of top rectangle = 2.4 – 0.9 = 1.5 m
Area of top rectangle = 4.5 × 1.5 = 6.75 m2
0.9 × 0.9 = 0.81 m2, 0.9 × 1.0 = 0.09 m2 and 0.9 × 1.2 = 1.08 m2
Total area = 6.57 + 0.81 + 0.9 + 1.08 = 8.55 m2
