A Lighthouse Casts A Revolving Beam Of Light As Far As The Pier What Is The Area That The Light Covers class=

Answer :

Answer:

First, let's find how far away the pier is.

Using the distance formula, we can see that the pier is [tex]\sqrt{58}[/tex] units away.

So, the radius is sqrt 58.

Area = pi (r)^2

So,  the area is 182.82 square units.

Let me know if this helps!

We have that The area that the light covers is  is mathematically given as

[tex]A=\pi x^2[/tex]

From the Question we are told that

Revolving beam of light as far as the pier

Let distance to pier be x

Generally the revolving beam turns a complete angle of 360

Therefore

Its goes in a circle

The area that the light covers is  is mathematically given as

[tex]A=\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]A=\pi x^2[/tex]

In conclusion

The area that the light covers is  is mathematically given as

[tex]A=\pi x^2[/tex]
