AREA OF RANGE CROSS-SECTION. In the accompanying plot the boundary of the water surface of the lake is represented by the irregular outline ABCDEFGH. Sounding were taken on parallel ranges BH, CG, and DF. The values indicated in the plot, all of which represents lengths in meters, show the horizontal distances which were measured for locating the ranges and the soundings, and the depths which were measured where sounding were taken. Calculate the areas (in sq m) of the cross-sections of ranges BH, CG, and DF. Also, determine the volume of water contained: a) Between ranges A and BH b) Between ranges BH and CG c) Between ranges CG and DF d) Between range
