A sand volleyball court is a rectangle that has a length of 52.5 feet and a width that is half of the length. In case of rain, the court is covered with a tarp. How many square feet of tarp are needed to cover the court?

Respuesta :

Answer: 1378.125 square feet of tarp are needed to cover the court.

Step-by-step explanation:

sand volleyball court is a rectangle that has a length of 52.5 feet and a width that is half of the length. It means that the width of the sand volleyball court is 52.5/2 = 26.25 feet.

The tarp needed to cover the court in case of rain would also be 52.5 ft × 26.25 ft

The formula for determining the area of a rectangle is expressed as

Area = length × width

Area of tarp needed to cover the court is

52.5 × 26.25 = 1378.125 square feet
