Qu'est ce qu'un angle solide ?? J'ai beau chercher dans mes documents, je ne trouve rien de bien convaincant sur le sujet si ce n'est une définition qui me semble bien vague et creuse ... En vous remerciant de votre attention ( puissiez vous illustrer votre réponse par un exemple, s.v.p...)

Bonjour,

Area Calculation 1998-05-05
Jessica pose la question :
There's a question I have that I hope you can answer about calculating area.

It seems to me that common sense says that if you have say 100 meters of fence, the area you can enclose should be a constant. Yet the math says it is not so. For example if you build a rectangle 10x40 the enclosed area is 400 square meters. But if you build a rectangle 5x45 then the area is 225 square meters, even though you've started with the same amount of fencing.

I know this is true, but can anyone explain IN ENGLISH why this is so?
Harley Weston lui répond.

  1. Write the particular equation giving the height as a function of time.
  2. Find the intercepts and explain them.
  3. What would be the height in one year?
  4. How long would it take for the plant to grow to a height of 1km?
I'm having a problem with this equation. Could you please help. Thank you.
