Answer:

  1. 288 cm²
  2. 61 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The dashed lines are included in the figure to help you see how it can be decomposed into shapes you know the area formulas for.

The relevant area formulas are ...

  rectangle: A = LW . . . . . product of length and width

  triangle: A = 1/2bh . . . . . half the product of base and height

__

<h3>1.</h3>

There are three rectangles here:

  left: A = (8 cm)(9 cm) = 72 cm²

  top: A = (12 cm)(9 cm) = 108 cm²

  lower right: A = (12 cm)(9 cm) = 108 cm²

The total area of these three rectangles is ...

  (72 +108 +108) cm² = 288 cm²

The area of Figure 1 is 288 cm².

__

<h3>2.</h3>

There is a rectangle here, along with a triangle.

  rectangle: A = (10 ft)(4 ft) = 40 ft²

  triangle: A = 1/2(6 ft)(3+4 ft) = 21 ft²

The total area of the parts of the figure is ...

  (40 +21) ft² = 61 ft²

The area of Figure 2 is 61 ft².

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Figure 1 can be decomposed other ways:

  • an overall 18×20 cm rectangle with a 9×8 cm rectangle removed from the upper left corner
  • a 9×20 rectangle at the bottom with a 9×12 rectangle at the top
  • a 9×8 rectangle at the left with an 18×12 rectangle at the right

Another way to decompose Figure 2 is as a trapezoid with a rectangle removed from the lower left. The trapezoid would have bases 10 and 10+6=16, and a height of 4+3=7. The removed rectangle is 10×3. (The computation we did is probably simpler.)

Find the Perimeter of this shape. Can someone explain to me how to find the perimeter.
Agata [3.3K]
The little lines in each side show that the sides are the same length but you also need to find the length of the smaller side which isn’t the same. For this imagine that the shape is split into a square and a triangle and you need to find the long side of the triangle using Pythagoras
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
20^2 + 20^2 = 800
Square root of 800 = 28.3
Then do 28.3-20=8.3
So I think the answer is 20+20+20+20+20+8.3=108.3 cm

Drag the numbers to order them from least to greatest. 2/3 -4 1/2 1/4 -1/2 2 1/3
kotegsom [21]

The larger the negative number the smaller the value:

The order would be:

-4, -1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 2
