Step 1
The formula for the area and the perimeter of a circular segment is given by A=12r2(θsinθ) and A=πrθ180, respectively.
Step 2
To find the area of the common area between two circles, use the formula for area of the circular segment formula, A=12r2(θsinθ). To find the value of θ, use the trigonometric ratio of cosine in ABC, cosθ=AdjacentHypotenuse and substitute adjacent with 4.5 and hypotenuse with 9 and simplify. Multiply θ with 2 to get BAD Substitute the values of r, and θ in the area formula and simplify to obtain the area of one circular segment. Multiply it by 2 to obtain the area common to the two circles.
cosθ=AdjacentHypotenuse
=4.59
θ=cos1(12)
=60
2θ=120
A=12r2(θsinθ)
=12(92)(120π180sin120)
=812(2π332)
=(40.5)(1.228)
=49.734 cm2
AT=2A
=2(49.734)
=99.468 cm2
Step 3
Total water surface area is the difference between the area of the circles and the circular segments. So, subtract the area of the circular segment with the area of one circle and multiply it to find the total surface area, Asa=2(πr2A). Substitute r with 9cm and A with 49.734 cm2 and simplify to obtain the total surface area of water.
Asa=2(πr2A)
=2(π(9)249.734)
=2(254.46949.734)
=2(204.735)
=409.47 cm2
Step 4
To find the perimeter of the pool, use the formula for the perimeter of the circular segment formula, A=πrθ180. Subtract 2θ from 360 to get the values of the remaining angles. Substitute the values of r, and θrem in the perimeter formula and simplify to obtain the perimeter of one side of the pool. Multiply it by 2 to obtain the total perimeter of the pool.

Step 1:
a) To find the area common to the two circles, we need to calculate the intersection area between the two circles. Let's consider the centers of the circles as points A and B, and the intersection area as the sector formed by the two radii and the enclosed region of the two circles.
The formula to find the area of a sector is given by:
{Area of sector}=Central angle360×πr2
Since the centers of the circles are 9m apart, the distance between points A and B is the diameter of each circle. Therefore, the distance AB is 18m.
To calculate the central angle, we can use the cosine rule. The cosine of an angle in a triangle can be found using the formula:
cosθ=a2+b2c22ab
Here, a = 9m (radius of each circle), b = 9m (distance between the centers), and c = 18m (distance between the points A and B).
Substituting the values into the formula, we have:
cosθ=92+921822×9×9
Simplifying the equation gives:
cosθ=81+81324162=162162=1
Since the cosine of an angle cannot be greater than 1 or less than -1, we conclude that the angle between the radii is 180°.
Using the formula for the area of a sector, with the radius (r) as 9m and the central angle as 180°, we get:
{Area of common region}=180360×π×(9{m})2
Simplifying the equation gives:
{Area of common region}=12×π×81{m}2
Therefore, the area common to the two circles is 12×π×81{m}2.
Step 2:
b) The total water surface area of the pool includes the area of both circles and the area of the common region. To find this, we sum the areas of the two circles and subtract the area of the common region:
{Total water surface area}=(π×(9{m})2)+(π×(9{m})2)(12×π×81{m}2)
Simplifying the equation gives:
{Total water surface area}=2×π×81{m}212×π×81{m}2
Combining like terms, we get:
{Total water surface area}=32×π×81{m}2
Therefore, the total water surface area of the pool is 32×π×81{m}2.
Step 3:
c) The perimeter of the pool is the sum of the circumferences of both circles minus the length of the common region between them. The circumference of a circle can be calculated using the formula:
{Circumference}=2×π×{radius}
Therefore, the perimeter of the pool is given by:
{Perimeter}=(2×π×9{m})+(2×π×9{m})(2×9{m})
Simplifying the equation gives:
{Perimeter}=4×π×9{m}18{m}
Therefore, the perimeter of the pool is 4×π×9{m}18{m}.

a) We must determine the area of the intersection region before we can determine the area shared by the two circles. The following is the formula to determine the area of the intersection of two circles:
A=r2cos1(d2+r2R22dr)+R2cos1(d2+R2r22dR)12(d+r+R)(d+rR)(dr+R)(d+r+R) where r is the radius of one circle, R is the radius of the other circle, and d is the distance between the centers of the circles.
For this problem, r=R=9m and d=9m. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:
A=92cos1(92+92922·9·9)+92cos1(92+92922·9·9)12(9+9+9)(9+99)(99+9)(9+9+9)
Simplifying the expression, we find:
A=81cos1(1)+81cos1(1)12(9)(18)(18)(27)
Using the values cos1(1)=0 and (9)(18)(18)(27)=972, the equation becomes:
A=81(0)+81(0)12(972)
Therefore, the area common to the two circles is A=486m2.
b) The total water surface area is the sum of the areas of the two circles plus the area of the intersection region. We can calculate it by using the formula:
Total Area=2(πr2)+A where r is the radius of one circle and A is the area common to the two circles.
For this problem, r=9m and A=486m2. Plugging in these values, we get:
Total Area=2(π·92)+(486)
Simplifying the expression, we find:
Total Area=162π486m2
Therefore, the total water surface area is Total Area=162π486m2.
c) The perimeter of the pool is the sum of the perimeters of the two circles minus the length of the common boundary between them. The formula to calculate the perimeter of a circle is given by:
Perimeter=2πr
For this problem, r=9m. Plugging in this value, we get:
Perimeter=2π·9
Simplifying the expression, we find:
Perimeter=18πm
Therefore, the perimeter of the pool is Perimeter=18πm.
