This rectangular frame is made from 5 straight pieces of metal. 5 m

12 m

The weight of the metal is 1.5 kg per metre.

Work out the total weight of the metal in the frame.

The total weight of the metal in the frame is 70.5 kg

If a rectangular frame is made from 5 straight pieces of metal, with a length of 5m and a width of 12m

Get the diagonal

Get the perimeter of the rectangular frame:

Perimeter of the frame = 2(5 + 12) + 13

Perimeter of the frame = 2(17) + 13

Perimeter of the frame = 34 + 13

Perimeter of the frame = 47m

If the weight of the metal is 1.5 kg per metre, the total weight will be expressed as:

Total weight = 47 * 1.5

Total weight = 70.5kg

Hence the total weight of the metal in the frame is 70.5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular frame is made from 5 straight pieces of metal. One of them goes through the diagonal of the rectangle.

2 pieces form the length of the rectangular frame, hence, they have a length of 12 m each

2 pieces from the width of the rectangular frame, hence, they a length of 5 m each

To find the length of the diagonal, we can use Pythagoras Theorem:

Hypotenuse² = Base² + Perpendicular²

Hypotenuse² = 5² + 12²

Hypotenuse² = 169²

Hypotenuse = 13

Hence, the length of the piece of metal placed at the diagonal is 13cm

Find the sum of all lengths of the metal pieces.

Total length = 12 + 12 + 5 + 5 + 13

Total length = 47 m

Total weight = 1.5 × Total length

Total weight = 1.5 kg/m × 47m

Total weight = 70.5 kg
