The area of any trapezoid is
Area = (1/2) x (height) x (one base + the other base) .
Take that formula and write in the numbers you know:
(24 m²) = (1/2) x (height) x (5m + 7m)
(24 m²) = (6m) x (height)
Divide each side by 6m :
Height = (24 m² / 6m)
= 4 m .
You'd have no problem simplifying that expression if it said
-(5 cows) - (1 cow) + ( 14 cows) - (3 cows) .
You'd just add up the cows, and simplify the expression to say
5 cows .
When you see an expression that talks about 'x's instead of cows,
you get scared. It has something to do with algebra and math and
all that stuff, so you freeze.
Relax. Just make each 'x' a cow, and suddenly it almost solves itself.
Answer:
t = 24 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the trapezoids are similar then the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is
= 
Substitute in given values
= 
( cross- multiply )
0.25t = 6 ( divide both sides by 0.25 )
t = 24
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
B. Angle 2 and angle seven are actually alternate exterior angles.
