It is your job to help them design the park. The park should measure 25 ft by 30 ft.Using a sheet of graph paper, you will create the layout for the park.Hint: (1 box = 1 inch = 1 foot)Here are the 8 pieces that must be included in the park somewhere:Sketch a playground in the shape of a rectangle.Length = 11 ft. & Height = 8 ft.Sketch a jungle gym in the shape of a parallelogram.Base = 10 ft. & Height = 7 ft.Sketch a tennis court in the shape of a rectangle.Length = 10 ft. & Width = 8 ft.Sketch a pool in the shape of a circle.Diameter = 6 ft.Sketch a sand box in the shape of a trapezoid.Base #1 = 7 ft. & Base #2 = 5 ft. & Height = 4 ft.Sketch a snack hut in the shape of a triangle.Base = 8 ft. & Height = 7 ft.Sketch a bathroom in the shape of a square.Side = 6 ft.Since you should have space left over, add two more things you would like the playground to have. List the items and dimensions below.Item #1: _________________________________________Item #2: _________________________________________After finishing your blueprints (graph paper), Nassau County needs us to submit the area for each part of the playground in order to help us calculate the remaining space and cost to build everything.1.
