solve and get SA and Premeter

Solve and get the surface area and perimeter of the given irregular octagon.

Solution

from PIL import Image import pytesseract

Load the uploaded image

image_path = '/mnt/data/17319448479057od88pk8.jpg' image = Image.open(image_path)

Perform OCR to extract text

extracted_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(image)

extracted_text''''successThe OCR process did not extract any text from the image. However, I can analyze the geometry in the image to calculate the surface area (SA) and perimeter based on the provided dimensions. Let me proceed with the calculation.

Observations:

The shape is an irregular octagon, and the dimensions are as follows:

  • The horizontal lengths: 3m,7m,3m3 \, \text{m}, 7 \, \text{m}, 3 \, \text{m}.
  • The vertical lengths: 3m,4m,3m3 \, \text{m}, 4 \, \text{m}, 3 \, \text{m}.
  • The diagonal cuts on each corner appear to form right triangles.

Step 1: Divide the shape into parts

We can divide the shape into:

  1. A central rectangle: 7m×4m7 \, \text{m} \times 4 \, \text{m}.
  2. Four right triangles at the corners with legs 3m3 \, \text{m}.

Step 2: Calculate surface area (SA)

  1. Area of the rectangle: Arectangle=7×4=28m2A_{\text{rectangle}} = 7 \times 4 = 28 \, \text{m}^2

  2. Area of one triangle: Atriangle=12×3×3=4.5m2A_{\text{triangle}} = \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 3 = 4.5 \, \text{m}^2

    Since there are 4 triangles: Atriangles total=4×4.5=18m2A_{\text{triangles total}} = 4 \times 4.5 = 18 \, \text{m}^2

  3. Total Surface Area: SA=Arectangle+Atriangles total=28+18=46m2SA = A_{\text{rectangle}} + A_{\text{triangles total}} = 28 + 18 = 46 \, \text{m}^2

Step 3: Calculate perimeter

The perimeter is the sum of all the side lengths: P=7+2×3+4+2×3+3×4.24P = 7 + 2 \times 3 + 4 + 2 \times 3 + 3 \times 4.24

Where ( 4.24\approx diagonalNow let's complete the perimeter calculation using the details provided:

Step 3 (Continued): Perimeter Calculation

The perimeter includes:

  1. The horizontal lengths: 7m7 \, \text{m} and 2×3m=6m2 \times 3 \, \text{m} = 6 \, \text{m}.
  2. The vertical lengths: 4m4 \, \text{m} and 2×3m=6m2 \times 3 \, \text{m} = 6 \, \text{m}.
  3. The diagonal lengths (hypotenuse of the right triangles at each corner): Using the Pythagorean theorem: Diagonal length=32+32=184.24m.\text{Diagonal length} = \sqrt{3^2 + 3^2} = \sqrt{18} \approx 4.24 \, \text{m}. Since there are 4 diagonals, their total length is: 4×4.24=16.96m.4 \times 4.24 = 16.96 \, \text{m}.

The total perimeter is: P=7+6+4+6+16.96=39.96m.P = 7 + 6 + 4 + 6 + 16.96 = 39.96 \, \text{m}.

Final Results:

  1. Surface Area (SA): 46m246 \, \text{m}^2
  2. Perimeter: 39.96m39.96 \, \text{m}

Would you like a breakdown of these steps or a visual explanation?

Here are 5 related questions to explore further:

  1. How is the Pythagorean theorem applied to find the diagonal lengths?
  2. How would the area and perimeter change if the diagonals were different?
  3. What are some practical applications of such calculations in real life?
  4. Can we verify these calculations using a geometric drawing tool?
  5. How does symmetry influence simplifying such problems?

Tip: Always double-check measurements and calculations, especially for irregular shapes, by breaking them into simpler components!
