Asquare is cut out of a copper sheet. two straight scratches on the surface of the square intersect forming an angle. the square is heated uniformly. as a result, the angle between the scratches

a) increases
b) decreases
c) stays the same
d) the answer depends on whether θ is an acute or obtuse angle.

(c) Stay the same

Step-by-step explanation:

Final angle will be same as initial angle. But length of lines will increase in both direction proportionally.

However any normal curve(closed or open ) will remain proportional to initial one. It is like a Zooming or magnifying of object.

area of part 1:

a1=base*height/2=(8+2)*(8-2-2-1)/2=10*3/2=15 ft^2

area of part 2:

a2=length*width=(8+2)*1=10 ft2

area of part 3:

a3=length*width=8*2=16 ft2

total shaded area : a1+a2+a3=41 ft2

total area of the reactangle : a=16*8=128 ft2

total area of the nonshaded region : 128-41=87 ft2

answer: r there any options?
