Problem
Figure 2 shows a plan view of a semicircular garden ABCDEOA.
The semicircle has
- centre O
- diameter AOE
- radius 3 m
Figure 2
The straight line BD is parallel to AE and angle BOA is 0.7 radians.
(a) Show that, to 4 significant figures, angle BOD is 1.742 radians.
(1)
The flowerbed R, shown shaded in Figure 2, is bounded by BD and the arc BCD.
(b) Find the area of the flowerbed, giving your answer in square metres to one decimal place.
(3)
(c) Find the perimeter of the flowerbed, giving your answer in metres to one decimal place.
(3)

BD∥AE,所以左右两边被切掉的两个小角相等,都是 0.7 radians。整个半圆对应的中心角是 π,因此中间角就是 π−2(0.7)。

Since BD is parallel to AE,
∠BOA=∠EOD=0.7.
The angle on a semicircle at the centre is π radians, so
∠BOD====π−0.7−0.7π−1.41.74159…1.742to 4 significant figures.

花圃面积是扇形 BOD 减去三角形 BOD。半径是 3,中心角用 (a) 的 1.742 radians。

The area of sector BOD is
21r2θ=21(3)2(1.742).
The area of triangle BOD is
21r2sinθ=21(3)2sin(1.742).
Therefore the area of R is
21(3)2(1.742)−21(3)2sin(1.742)==3.401…3.4.
So the area of the flowerbed is
3.4 m2.

周长由弧长 BCD 和弦长 BD 组成。弧长用 rθ。弦长可以用等腰三角形的一半,也就是 BD=2rsin(θ/2)。

The arc length BCD is
3(1.742)=5.226.
The chord length BD is
BD==2(3)sin(21.742)4.590….
Therefore the perimeter of R is
5.226+4.590…==9.816…9.8.
So the perimeter of the flowerbed is
9.8 m.
