The correct Answer is:
To find the total area cleaned by the two wipers of a car, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Problem Each wiper has a blade length of 25 cm and sweeps through an angle of 115 degrees. We need to find the area cleaned by both wipers. ### Step 2: Calculate the Area of One Wiper's Sweep The area cleaned by one wiper can be calculated using the formula for the area of a sector of a circle: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{\theta}{360^\circ} \times \pi r^2 \] Where: - \(\theta\) is the angle in degrees (115 degrees) - \(r\) is the radius (length of the wiper blade, which is 25 cm) ### Step 3: Substitute the Values Substituting the values into the formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{115}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times (25)^2 \] Calculating \(25^2\): \[ 25^2 = 625 \] Now substituting this back into the area formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{115}{360} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 625 \] ### Step 4: Simplify the Fraction To simplify \(\frac{115}{360}\): - Divide both the numerator and denominator by 5: \[ \frac{115 \div 5}{360 \div 5} = \frac{23}{72} \] Now substitute this back into the area formula: \[ \text{Area} = \frac{23}{72} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 625 \] ### Step 5: Calculate the Total Area for Both Wipers Since there are two wipers, the total area cleaned will be: \[ \text{Total Area} = 2 \times \text{Area of one wiper} \] Thus: \[ \text{Total Area} = 2 \times \left(\frac{23}{72} \times \frac{22}{7} \times 625\right) \] ### Step 6: Simplify Further Now, we can simplify: \[ \text{Total Area} = \frac{2 \times 23 \times 22 \times 625}{72 \times 7} \] Calculating \(72 \div 2 = 36\): \[ \text{Total Area} = \frac{23 \times 22 \times 625}{36 \times 7} \] ### Step 7: Calculate the Final Value Now we can compute the values: - Calculate \(23 \times 22 = 506\) - Then multiply by 625: \[ 506 \times 625 = 316250 \] - Now calculate \(36 \times 7 = 252\) - Finally, divide: \[ \text{Total Area} = \frac{316250}{252} \approx 1254.96 \text{ cm}^2 \] ### Final Answer The total area cleaned at each sweep of the blades is approximately \(1254.96 \text{ cm}^2\). ---
