A car's rear windshield wiper rotates 140°. The total length of the wiper mechanism is 24 inches and the length of the wiper blade is 16 inches. Find the area wiped by the wiper blade. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem is on the mensuration of flat shapes, sectors and arc.

we know that the area of a sector is given as

A=(∅/360)*πr^2

Given that the length of the wiper R=24 in

and the length of the blade r= 16in

To find the area of the wiped surface we only require the length of the blade as the radius

The area of the wiped surface is given as= (140/360)*3.142*16^2

A= 0.3888*3.142*256

A=312.7 in^2

30 units^2

step-by-step explanation:

area is l × w

the length is 3

and the width is 10

3 × 10= 30 units squared

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.
