POW #7 Field of Dreams Due Friday April 11, 2014
Kevin is out in the corn fields one day when he hears a voice say, “If you build it they will come.” So Kevin clears out a perfect circle from his crops with an area of one acre.
The next day Kevin hears, “No, I want a square.” So Kevin forms a square that circumscribes the circle so that he cuts down as few crops as possible.
On the third day Kevin hears, “Actually, I think I like the circle a little bit better.” So Kevin forms a larger circle that circumscribes the square so that the amount of corn cut down is minimal.
How many acres of corn did Kevin cut down? Carefully draw each stage of the field and label all necessary measures.
