24.2.1 Calculate the diameter of the tablecloth to be cut from the material, including the additional centimetres for the hem.

  1. Identify the given dimensions.

    The diameter of the table is 130 cm130 \text{ cm}.
    The additional length for the hem on each side is 25 cm25 \text{ cm}.

  2. Calculate the total diameter of the tablecloth.

    The total diameter will be the table's diameter plus the hem allowance on both sides.

    Diameter=130 cm+25 cm+25 cm\text{Diameter} = 130 \text{ cm} + 25 \text{ cm} + 25 \text{ cm} Diameter=180 cm\text{Diameter} = 180 \text{ cm}
  3. Convert the diameter to meters for consistency with later calculations.

    Diameter=180 cm×1 m100 cm\text{Diameter} = 180 \text{ cm} \times \frac{1 \text{ m}}{100 \text{ cm}} Diameter=1.8 m\text{Diameter} = 1.8 \text{ m}

    The diameter of the tablecloth is 1.8 m\boxed{\text{1.8 m}}.

    24.2.2 Calculate the area (in m²) of the tablecloth material.
    You may use the formula: Area=Side×Side\text{Area} = \text{Side} \times \text{Side}

  4. Identify the side length of the material.

    The material size is 2.3 m2.3 \text{ m}. Assuming it's a square, the side length is 2.3 m2.3 \text{ m}.

  5. Calculate the area using the given formula.

    Area of material=Side×Side\text{Area of material} = \text{Side} \times \text{Side} Area of material=2.3 m×2.3 m\text{Area of material} = 2.3 \text{ m} \times 2.3 \text{ m} Area of material=5.29 m2\text{Area of material} = 5.29 \text{ m}^2

    The area of the tablecloth material is 5.29 m2\boxed{\text{5.29 m}^2}.

    24.2.3 Calculate the area (in m²) of the tablecloth that was cut from the material.
    You may use the following formula: Area=π(radius)2\text{Area} = \pi (\text{radius})^2, where π=3.142\pi = 3.142

  6. Determine the radius of the tablecloth.

    From 24.2.1, the diameter of the tablecloth is 1.8 m1.8 \text{ m}.

    Radius=Diameter2\text{Radius} = \frac{\text{Diameter}}{2} Radius=1.8 m2\text{Radius} = \frac{1.8 \text{ m}}{2} Radius=0.9 m\text{Radius} = 0.9 \text{ m}
  7. Calculate the area using the given formula and π=3.142\pi = 3.142.

    Area of tablecloth=π(radius)2\text{Area of tablecloth} = \pi (\text{radius})^2 Area of tablecloth=3.142×(0.9 m)2\text{Area of tablecloth} = 3.142 \times (0.9 \text{ m})^2 Area of tablecloth=3.142×0.81 m2\text{Area of tablecloth} = 3.142 \times 0.81 \text{ m}^2 Area of tablecloth=2.54502 m2\text{Area of tablecloth} = 2.54502 \text{ m}^2

    The area of the tablecloth is 2.54502 m2\boxed{\text{2.54502 m}^2}.

    24.2.4 Calculate how much material was wasted when the table cloth was cut.
    You may use the formula: Wasted material=Area of a material−Area of tablecloth\text{Wasted material} = \text{Area of a material} - \text{Area of tablecloth}

  8. Use the areas calculated in 24.2.2 and 24.2.3.

    Area of material = 5.29 m25.29 \text{ m}^2
    Area of tablecloth = 2.54502 m22.54502 \text{ m}^2

  9. Calculate the wasted material.

    Wasted material=5.29 m2−2.54502 m2\text{Wasted material} = 5.29 \text{ m}^2 - 2.54502 \text{ m}^2 Wasted material=2.74498 m2\text{Wasted material} = 2.74498 \text{ m}^2

    The amount of material wasted is 2.74498 m2\boxed{\text{2.74498 m}^2}.
