Olympic Track. To host the Summer Olympics, a city plans to
build an eight-lane track. The track will consist of parallel 100-m
straightaways with semicircular turns on either end as shown in
the figure. The distance around the outside edge of the oval track
is 514 m. If the track is built on a rectangular lot as shown in
the drawing, then how many hectares (1 hectare = 10,000 m^2)
of land are needed in the rectangular lot?
I've got no Idea where to start first. please help me. thanks!
