Rebekah designs a playing field for a new sport. The playing field is pictured. What is the area of the playing field? Answers: 32 square meters. 58 square meters. 60 square meters. 56 square meters.

1 answer

To determine the area of the playing field designed by Rebekah, we would need specific measurements for the shape of the field. Since the dimensions are not provided in your question, let’s assume some common geometric shapes to illustrate how to calculate the area.

  1. Rectangular Field: If the field is a rectangle with length \( l \) meters and width \( w \) meters, the area \( A \) is calculated as: \[ A = l \times w \]

  2. Triangular Field: If the field is triangular with base \( b \) meters and height \( h \) meters, the area \( A \) would be: \[ A = \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h \]

  3. Composite Shapes: If the field consists of multiple geometric shapes, you would calculate the area of each shape separately and then sum the areas together.

If you can provide more specific details about the shape and dimensions of the playing field, I would be able to calculate the area accurately.

Given the possible answers (32, 58, 60, and 56 square meters), it seems the area must be a predetermined value based on the geometry used for the field's design. Assuming specific dimensions could lead to getting one of those values, but without additional information, it is impossible to ascertain which is correct.
