Easy
the easiest way is to imagine that you have a rectangle with a corner cut off
the area of the figure=area of rectangle-area cut off
area that was cut off was a triangle
area of rectangle=length times width
area of triangle=1/2base times height
so we draw imaginary lines like in attachment
find area of rectangle
legnth=9 inch
width=9 inch
area=9 times 9=81 in^2
triangle
the top part is ?+5=9, so the base of triangle=4
the side is ?+4=9, so the base is 5
area=1/2 times 4 times 5=10 in^2
area=rectangle-triangle
area=81-10=71 in^2
Answer: The answer is 5a+13
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
w = 21.4 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of Trapezoid = Area = (a+b)/2 * h
Where a and b are the bases of trapezoid, and h is the height.
In the figure we are given:
a= 32.3 ft
b=w=?
h= 22.9 ft
Area = 614.865 ft²
Putting values in formula
Area = (a+b)/2 * h
614.865 = (32.3 + w) / 2 * 22.9
1229.73 = 32.3 + w * 22.9
1229.73 / 22.9 = 32.3 +w
53.7 -32.3 = w
=> w = 21.4 ft
