Step 1: Swing Set Repair
A swing set needs repair. The support bar in the middle of the A-frame is failing and must be replaced.
- The legs of the frame SI and GI are each 5 ft long. If the crossbar WN intersects legs SI and GI at their midpoints, how far is point W from point S on the leg? Justify your answer and show all calculations.
- The distance between point S and point G is 5 feet. Will a piece of wood that is 36 in long be long enough toreplace the crossbar labeled WN? Justify your answer and show all calculations.
- Assuming the ground is flat, is WN parallel to the ground? Justify with the applicable theorem.
Step 2: Using the Centroid
- Explain the relationship between point Z and the triangle. Justify your answer and show all calculations.
- If the length of GU is 18 units, what is the length of GZ? Show all your work. Justify your answer and show all calculations.
- If the length of ZT is 4.8 units, what is the length of OT? Show all your work. Justify your answer and show all calculations.
Step 3: What to Submit
Submit the following to your instructor:
- All work and explanations for each part of step 1.
- All work and explanations for each part of step 2.
