Triangle greenhouse
A greenhouse has the shape of a prism lying on its side wall. The base consists of a trapezoid and a triangle. The lower base of the trapezoid has a length of 3 m, the upper base (and the side of the triangle) has a length of 2 m, the height of the trapezoid is 1.8 m, and the height of the triangle is 0.6 m. The height of the prism is 5 m. Calculate:
a) how many m2 of glass are needed for its manufacture if 10% of the surface consists of metal structure.
b) What is the volume of the greenhouse.
Your answer:
a) how many m2 of glass are needed for its manufacture if 10% of the surface consists of metal structure.
