These two sides are called the bases of the trapezoid. The height of a trapezoid is a segment that connects the one base of the trapezoid and the other base of the trapezoid and is perpendicular to both of the bases. Example 4.

In other words the height of triangle is a segment that goes from the vertex of the triangle opposite the base to the base (or an extension of the base) that is perpendicular to the base (or an extension of the base). Notice that in this description of the height of a triangle, we had to include the words or an extension of the base. This is required because the height of a triangle does not always fall within the sides of the triangle. Another thing to note is that any side of the triangle can be a base. You want to pick the base so that you will have the length of the base and also the length of the height to that base. The base does not need to be the bottom of the triangle. 6 Geometry You will notice that we can still find!"#$"%&'()#%"*( the area of a triangle if we dont have its height.

(Notice that this is not square units since we are not finding an area). We are now going to move on to circles. We already mentioned the perimeter (circumference) of a circle in the perimeter sections. We also need a formula for finding the area of a circle. Area of a Circle A = πr2 r = radius of the circle π = the number that is approximated by 3.141593 For circle problems we need to remember that the circumference (perimeter) of a circle is only the curved part of the circle. It does not include either the radius or diameter of the circle. In order to find the perimeter and area, we will need the radius of the circle.

We might be tempted to say that we have two right triangles and that the line we are looking for is just the sum of each triangles hypotenuse. The only problem with that is that we do not know the lengths of the legs of each of the right triangles. Thus we are not able to apply the Pythagorean Theorem in this way. We are on the right track though. This is a Pythagorean Theorem problem.

It is enough to approximate that we end up 17.6918 yards from where we started. Volume and Surface Area We will continue our study of geometry by studying three-dimensional figures. We will look at the two-dimensional aspect of the outside covering of the figure and also look at the three-dimensional space that the figure encompasses. The surface area of a figure is defined as the sum of the areas of the exposed sides of an object. A good way to think about this would be as the area of the paper that it would take to cover the outside of an object without any overlap. In most of our examples, the exposed sides of our objects will polygons whose areas we learned how to find in the previous section. When we talk about the surface area of a sphere, we will need a completely new formula. The volume of an object is the amount of three-dimensional space an object takes up. It can be thought of as the number of cubes that are one unit by one unit by one unit that it takes to fill up an object. Hopefully this idea of cubes will help you remember that the units for volume are cubic units. 12 Geometry Surface Area of a Rectangular Solid SA = 2(lw + lh + wh) l = length of the base of the solid w = width of the base of the solid h = height of the solid Volume of a Solid with a Matching Base and Top V = Ah A = area of the base of the solid h = height of the solid Volume of a Rectangular Solid (specific type of solid with matching base and top) V = lwh l = length of the base of the solid w = width of the base of the solid !"#$"%&'()#%"*( +#,-$"(./0(1-&2.3"(4&".( h = height of the solid 5.6"(78(#2(9:( !"#$%&'()*( Example 12.

The official definition of a sphere is a three-dimensional surface, all points of which are equidistant from a fixed point called the center of the sphere. A circle that runs along the surface of a sphere to that it cuts the sphere into two equal halves is called a great circle of 14 Geometry that sphere. A great circle of a sphere would have a diameter that is equal to the diameter of the sphere.

It does not matter which of these we say is b1 and which is b2 . The height of the trapezoid is 5 units. The height of the solid is 15 units. We will start by plugging the information about the trapezoidal base into the formula for the area of a trapezoid. Once we have this area, we will plug that and the height of the solid into the volume formula. Area of the trapezoidal base: A = 12 (b1 + b2 )h = 21 (13 + 8)5 = 52.5 square units. Volume of trapezoidal solid: V = Ah = (52.5)(15) = 787.5 cubic units. Our next formulas will be for finding the volume of a cone or a pyramid. These two formulas are grouped together since they are very similar. Each is basically 13 times the area of the base of the solid times the height of the solid. In the case of the cone, the base is a circle. In the case of the pyramid, we will have a base that is a rectangle. The height in both cases is the perpendicular distance from the apex to the plane which contains the base. A pyramid is a solid figure with a polygonal base (in our case a rectangle) and triangular faces that meet at a common point (the apex). A cone is the surface of a conic solid whose base is a circle. This is more easily thought of as a pointed ice-cream cone whose top is circular and level.

MAT 142 - Module 19 Left Hemisphere: The volume of a whole sphere is V = 43 πr3 = 34 π(33 ) = 36π cubic feet. We now multiply this volume by 21 to find the volume of the hemisphere to get 12 V = 12 (36π) = 18π cubic feet. Right Hemisphere: The volume of a whole sphere is V = 43 πr3 = 34 π(33 ) = 36π cubic feet. We now multiply this volume by 21 to find the volume of the hemisphere to get 12 V = 12 (36π) = 18π cubic feet. You might notice that we went through exactly the same process with exactly the same number for each hemisphere. We could have shortened this process by realizing that putting together the two hemispheres on each end, which were of the same diameter, would create a whole sphere. We could just have calculated the volume of this whole sphere. Now we need to calculate the volume of the cylinder. We need the radius of the cylinder and the height of the cylinder to find its volume. The radius of the cylinder is the same as the radius of the hemispheres at each end. Thus the radius of the cylinder is 3 feet. It may look like the height of the cylinder is 20 feet. It turns out that this is not the case. The 20 feet includes the hemispheres at each end. We need to subtract the part of the 20 feet that represents the hemispheres. ! radius of hemisphere = 3 ft radius of hemisphere = 3 ft 6 ft 20 ft height of cylinder Looking at the figure above, we see that the distance from the end of the left hemisphere to the left end of the cylinder is the radius of the hemisphere. The radius of the hemisphere is 3 feet. Similarly, the distance from the right end of the cylinder to the end of the right cylinder is also the radius of the hemisphere. The radius of the hemisphere is 3 feet. If we now subtract these two distances from the overall length of the tanks, we will have the height of the cylinder to be h = 20−3−3 = 14 feet. We can now calculate the volume of the cylinder. Cylinder: V = Ah = πr2 h = π(32 )(14) = 126π cubic feet. We can now find the volume of the tank by adding together the volumes of the cylinder, the right hemisphere, and the left hemisphere. We get the volume to be V = 126π + 18π + 18π = 162π cubic feet. This is approximated by 508.938 cubic feet. Example 21. A regulation baseball (hardball) has a great circle circumference of 9 inches; a regulation softball has a great circle circumference of 12 inches. a. Find the volumes of the two types of balls. b. Find the surface areas of the two types of balls. 20 Geometry Solution: Part a: In order to find the volume of a sphere, we need the radius of the sphere. In this problem, we are not given the radius. Instead we are given the circumference of a great circle of the sphere. From this information, we can calculate the radius of the great circle, which is the radius of the sphere. Radius of the baseball: We calculate the radius of the baseball by plugging in the circumference of the great circle of the baseball into the formula for the circumference of the circle and solve for r (the radius). C = 2πr 9 = 2πr 9 =r 2π Now that we have the radius of the baseball, we can calculate the volume, by plugging the radius into the formula for the volume of a sphere. 4 V = πr3 3 3 4 9 V = π 3 2π 4 × 93 × π V = 3 × 23 × π 3 2916π V = 24π 3 243 V = 2 cubic inches 2π This is approximately 12.3105 cubic inches. Radius of the softball: We will go through the same process with the softball to calculate the radius of the softball. C = 2πr 12 = 2πr 12 =r 2π 6 =r π Now that we have the radius of the softball, we can calculate the volume, by plugging the radius into the formula for the volume of a sphere. MAT 142 - Module 21 4 V = πr3 3 3 4 6 V = π 3 π 3 4×6 ×π V = 3 × π3 864π V = 3π 3 288 V = 2 cubic inches π This is approximately 29.1805 cubic inches. Part b: In order to find the surface area of a sphere, we need the radius of the sphere. We calculated the radius for each type of ball in part a. We only need to plug this information in to the formula for surface area of a sphere. Surface area of a baseball: 2 9 SA = 4π 2π 4π(9)2 SA = 2 2 2π 324π SA = 4π 2 81 SA = square inches π This is approximately 25.7831 square inches. Surface area of a softball: 2 6 SA = 4π π 4π(6)2 SA = π2 144π SA = π2 144 SA = square inches π This is approximately 45.83662 square inches. Our final example is an application problem. We will need to be able to use dimensional analysis, volumes, and common sense in order to be able to answer the question. 22 Geometry Example 22. Mike Jones bought an older house and wants to put in a new concrete driveway. The driveway will be 30 feet long, 10 feet wide, and 9 inches thick. Concrete (a mixture of sand, gravel, and cement) is measured by the cubic yard. One sack of dry cement mix costs $7.30, and it takes four sacks to mix up 1 cubic yard of concrete. How much will it cost Mike to buy the cement? Solution: The driveway that is being poured will be a rectangular solid or box. Thus in order to answer this question, we will first need to find the volume of this box (the amount of cubic units it will take to fill this box). The problem tells us that concrete is measured by the cubic yard. This lets us know that those are the units we will want to calculate with. None of the dimensions of the driveway are given in yards. We will need to use our dimensional analysis (unit conversion) to convert all of the measurements to yards. This could be done at a later point, but this is the easiest place to take care of the conversion. Convert length: 30 feet 1 yard × = 10yards 1 3 feet Convert width: 10 feet 1 yard 10 × = yards. We are not going to estimate this value since the approximation 1 3 feet 3 with introduce error. As in the finance section, we dont want to round until the end of the problem or in a place where it is absolutely necessary. Convert height: 9 inches 1 yard 1 × = yards = .25yards. Since the decimal representation of this number 1 36 inches 4 is a terminating decimal, we can use this representation in our calculations. Volume of driveway: )(.25) = 25 We are now ready to calculate the volume of the driveway. V = lwh = (10)( 10 3 3 cubic yards. Now, we are told that it takes 4 bags of cement to make one cubic yard of concrete. So we will now calculate how many bags of cement to buy. Mikes driveway is 25 cubic yards 3 25 and each of those cubic yards requires 4 bags of cement. Thus Mike will need 3 × 4 = 100 3 bags or approximately 33.333 bags. Here is where common sense needs to come in. There is no store that will sell .333 bags of cement mix. Stores only sell whole bags of cement mix. Thus we will need to round up to the next whole bag (we cant round down or we will not have enough cement mix to complete the driveway). This means that Mike will need to buy 34 bags of cement mix. Each of these bags will cost $7.30. This means that Mike will pay 7.30 × 34 = $248.20 for the cement mix for this driveway. Similar Triangles We will continue our study of geometry by looking at similar triangles. Two triangles are similar if their corresponding angles are congruent (or have the same measurement). MAT 142 - Module 23 ! In the picture above, the corresponding angles are indicated in the two triangles by the same number of hash marks. In other words, the angle with one hash mark in the smaller triangle corresponds to the angle with one hash mark in the larger triangle. These angles have the same measure or are congruent. There are also corresponding sides in similar triangles. In the triangles above side a corresponds to side d (for example). These sides do not necessarily have the same measure. They do, however, form a ratio that is the same no matter which pair of corresponding sides the ratio is made from. Thus we can write the following equation !"#$"%&'()#%"*( +,$,-.&(/&,.01-"*( 2.1"(34(#5(67( a b c = = d e & f$ " = = ' % # ! triangle are always Notice that the sides of one particular written on top of the fractions ()*+"#'*,&*'*,#'-+%#-')!').#'/&0*+"12&0'*0+&.32#'&0#'&24&5-'40+**#.').'*)/')!' and the sides of the other triangle are always written on the bottom of the fractions.

The side 100 in the triangle on the left corresponds to the side labeled 8 in the triangle on the right. Finally the side 90 in the triangle on the left corresponds to the side labeled y in the triangle on the right. We will need this information to find values for x and y. Find x : We will start by finding the value for x. We will need to form a ratio with the side labeled x and is corresponding side in the triangle on the right. We will also need a pair of corresponding side both of whose measurements we have and make a ratio out of those. Once we make an equation using these ratios, we will just need to solve the equation for x.

MAT 142 - Module 25 Solution: Our first job here is to determine which sides in the triangle on the left correspond to which sides in the triangle on the right. The side in the triangle on the left labeled y joins the angle with one hash mark and the angle with two has marks. The side in the triangle on the right that does this is the side labeled 37.25. Thus these are corresponding sides. In a similar manner, we can see that the side labeled 3.2 in the triangle on the left corresponds to the side labeled x on the triangle on the right. Finally the side labeled 2.8 in the triangle on the left corresponds to the side labeled 45 in the triangle on the right. Find x : We will start by finding the value for x. We will need to form a ratio with the side labeled x and is corresponding side in the triangle on the right. We will also need a pair of corresponding side both of whose measurements we have and make a ratio out of those. Once we make an equation using these ratios, we will just need to solve the equation for x. I am going to choose to place the sides of the triangle on the left on the top of each of the ratios. 3.2 2.8 = x 45 3.2(45) = x(2.8) 144 = 2.8x 144 units = x 2.8 This is approximately 51.42857 units. Find y: We will continue by finding the value for y. We will need to form a ratio with the side labeled y and is corresponding side in the triangle on the right. We will also need a pair of corresponding side both of whose measurements we have and make a ratio out of those. Although we know the measurements of all the other sides of the triangle, it is best to avoid using a side we just calculate to make further calculations if possible. The reason for this is that if we have made a mistake in our previous calculation, we would end up with an incorrect answer here as well. Once we make an equation using these ratios, we will just need to solve the equation for y. I am going to choose to place the sides of the triangle on the left on the top of each of the ratios. y 2.8 = 37.25 45 y(45) = 37.25(2.8) 45y = 104.3 104.3 y= units 45 This is approximately 3.21778 units. Our final example is an application of similar triangles. 26 Geometry Example 25. A 3.6-foot tall child casts a shadow of 4.7 feet at the same instant that a telephone pole casts a shadow of 15 feet.

We will do the angle B first. Angle B : We can find the measure of angle B without using any trigonometric ratios. What we need to remember to find this value is that the sum of the three angles of a triangle will always add up to 180 degrees. It does not matter the size or shape of the triangle. The sum of the three angles will always be 180 degrees. We know that one angle is a right angle. Its measure is 90 degrees. The measure of the other angle is given to be 60 degrees. Thus we just need to calculate 90 + 60 + B = 180 150 + B = 180 B = 30 Thus the measure of angle B is 30 degrees. 28 Geometry Side x : We will now work to find the length of side x. We need to start by determining which angle we are going to use for our problem. As in the past, it is best to use an angle that is given. Thus we will be using the angle labeled 60 degrees. Our next step is to determine which side x is relative to the angle labeled 60 degrees. Since the side labeled x is opposite the right angle, it is the hypotenuse. There are two trigonometric ratios that include the hypotenuse. Thus, we need to determine which one to use. This will be determined by the other side of the triangle whose measure we know. This is the side labeled 10. Since this side is not one of the sides of the triangle that makes up the angle labeled 60 degrees, it is the opposite side. This means that we need to use the trigonometric ratio that has both the hypotenuse and the opposite side. That ratio is the sine ratio. We will plug into that equation and solve for x. opposite hypotenuse 10 sin(60) = x sin(60) 10 = 1 x x sin(60) = 1(10) 10 x= sin(60) sin(A) = Through out this solution, we have left sin(60) in this form. This saves us from needing to round until the end of the problem. sin(60) is just a number that at the end of the problem can be calculated by our calculator. Our answer is approximately x ≈ 11.54701. Side y: We will finish by finding the length of side y. As in the previous par of the problem, it is best to use the angle labeled 60 degrees. Our next step is to determine which side y is relative to the angle labeled 60 degrees. Since the side labeled y is forms part of the angle labeled 60 degrees, it is the adjacent side. There are two trigonometric ratios that include the adjacent side. Since the other side that is given is the side labeled 10 and this side is the opposite side (see explanation above), we will need to use the trigonometric ratio that has both the opposite side and the adjacent side. That ratio is the tangent ratio. We will plug into that equation and solve for y.

Thus we calculate 90 + 53.4 + B = 180 143.4 + B = 180 B = 36.6 MAT 142 - Module 31 Thus the measure of angle B is 36.6 degrees. Side c: We will use the given angle labeled 53.4 degrees as our angle for solving this problem. Side c forms part of the triangle that is opposite the right angle. Thus it is the hypotenuse. We are also given the measure of the side adjacent to the angle we are using to be 5.6. Thus we will want to use the cosine ratio. 5.6 cos(53.4) = c cos(53.4) 5.6 = 1 c c cos(53.4) = 1(5.6) 5.6 c= cos(53.4) Our answer is approximately c ≈ 9.39243. Side a: We will use the given angle labeled 53.4 degrees as our angle for solving this problem. Side a does not form the angle we are using. Thus it is the opposite side. We are also given the measure of the side adjacent to the angle we are using to be 5.6. Thus we will want to use the tangent ratio. a 5.6 tan(53.4) a = 1 5.6 5.6 tan(53.4) = 1(a) tan(53.4) = 5.6 tan(53.4) = a !"#$"%&'()#%"*( Our answer is+,-.%(/&,01-2"(/&,-#1#$"%&'( approximately a ≈ 7.54041. 30-"(45(#6(47( Example 29.

The side labeled 8.0 forms part of the angle A. Thus it is the adjacent side. The side labeled 7.0 does not form any part of the angle A. Thus it is the opposite side. The trigonometric ratio that includes both the adjacent and opposite sides is the tangent ratio. We will fill in the information to that equation and solve for A. We need to know how to solve for A in this equation. As in our section on exponential functions and their inverses, there is an inverse function (a functions that undoes) for the tangent function. On the calculator it is labeled tan−1 . Thus we can finally solve for A by calculating Thus the measure of angle A is approximately A ≈ 41.18593 degrees. Angle B : As we solve for angle B, we need to relabel the sides whose measures are given relative to angle B. The side labeled 7.0 forms part of the angle B. Thus it is the adjacent side. The side labeled 8.0 does not form any part of the angle B. Thus it is the opposite side. The trigonometric ratio that includes both the adjacent and opposite sides is the tangent ratio. We will fill in the information to that equation and solve for A. We will once again use the inverse function of the tangent function. On the calculator it is labeled tan−1 .
