Let x be the width, which is equal to the diameter of the semi-circle.
Then the perimeter around just the semi-circle is (1/2) pi x.
Let y the height of the rectangular portion of the window.
Perimeter around just the rectangular portion of the window is x + 2y.
The total perimeter is (1/2) pi x + x + 2y = 30
Solve this equation for y:
2y = 30 - (1/2) pi x - x
y = 15 - (1/4) pi x - x/2
Then the area of the rectangular portion is xy.
The area of the semi-circle is (1/2) pi (x/2)^2.
The total area = A = (1/2) pi (x/2)^2 + xy
Substitute the expression for y found above into this last equation:
A = (1/2) pi (x/2)^2 + x(15 - (1/4) pi x - x/2 )
Simplify and combine like terms:
A = x^2(-pi - 4)/8 + 15x
Take the derivative and set it to zero:
A' = (1/4) (-4-pi)x + 15 = 0
Solve for x:
(1/4) (-4-pi)x = -15
Multiply by -4:
(4+pi)x = 60
Divide:
x = 60 / (4+pi) ≈ 8.4 ft
y = 15 - (1/4) pi x - x/2 = 30 / (4+pi) ≈ 4.2 ft

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

no, her answer is not correct. we square the lengths of all sides and then determine whether the pythagorean theorem holds here:

9² + 15² = 306. this is not equal to the square of the longest side ( that square being 395. answer c is correct.

it can be to see completed examples before writing, in order to examine what makes for an effective piece. see how these intros give some context before posing the topic and lead naturally into the body paragraphs, where the evidence will be listed. you can imagine how the author has organized the rest of the piece.
