- Enclosing a field You have 16 miles of fence that you will use to enclose a rectangle field. a.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 3 miles and length 5 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? b.Draw a picture to show that you can arrange the 16 miles fence into a rectangle of width 2 miles and length 6 miles. What is the area of this rectangle? c.The first two parts of this exercise are designed to show you that you can get different areas for the rectangle of the sane perimeter, 16 miles. In general, if you arrange the 16 miles of fence into a rectangle of width w miles, then it will enclose an area of A=w8-w square miles. iMake a graph of the area enclosed as a function of w, and explain what the graph is showing. iiWhat width w should you use to enclose the most area? iiiWhat is the length of the maximum-area rectangle that you made, and what kind of figure do you have?arrow_forwardHOW DO YOU SEE IT? The figure shows a large square with an area of a2 that contains a smaller square with an area of b2. (a) Describe the regions that represent a2b2. How can you rearrange these regions to show that a2b2=(ab)(a+b)? (b) How can you use the figure to show that (ab)2=a22ab+b2? (c) Draw another figure to show that (a+b)2=a2+2ab+b2.
