Answer: A = 33 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given information:</u>

Longer side = 7 in

Shorter side = 4 in

Shorter Hypotenuse = 5 in

<u>Given formula:</u>

A = (1/2) × (d₁) × (d₂)

  • A = area
  • d₁ = The longer line (horizontal)
  • d₂ = The shorter line (vertical)

Please refer to the attachment below for a graphical understanding

<u>Determine the length of the shorter side (vertical) through the Pythagorean theorem</u>

a² + b² = c² <em>(Pythagorean theorem)</em>

(4)² + b² = (5)² <em>(Substitute values into the equation)</em>

16 + b² = 25

b² = 25 - 16

b² = 9

b = 3  or b = -3 (rej)

<u>Substitute values into the given formula</u>

A = (1/2) × d₁ × d₂

A = (1/2) × (7 + 4) × (3 + 3)

<u>Simplify values in the parenthesis</u>

A = (1/2) × 11 × 6

<u>Simplify by multiplication</u>

A = (11/2) × 6

\Large\boxed{A=33}

Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:

Area = 33 inches squared

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a kite is:

Area = ½ × (d)1 × (d)2

To find the first diagonal (d1):

d1 = 7 in + 4 in = 11 in

To find the second diagonal (d2):

The triangles on the right of the kite must be 3 4 5 triangle since it is a right triangle with a hypotenuse of 5 and a side of 4, we know half of a diagonal would be 3 inches.

d2 = 3 in + 3 in = 6 in

Now we can plug the diagonals into the area formula.

Area = ½ × 11 × 6 = 33 inches squared

'The length of a rectangle is 6 feet more than three
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

length : 15 ft

width : 3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

perimeter = 2×l(ength) + 2×w(idth) = 36

l = 3w + 6

=> 2×(3w+6) + 2w = 36

6w + 12 + 2w = 36

8w = 24

w = 3

=> l = 3w + 6 = 3×3 + 6 = 9+6=15

Write any two numbers less than 15 , which has exactly four factors​
Xelga [282]

Answer:

4 can be divided by 1 and 2

6 can be divided by 1 and 2

12 is wrong because it can be divided by 1,2, and 4 so it has 6 factors instead of 4

The value of a book is $150 and decreases at a rate of 4% per year. Find the value of the book after 12 years
nevsk [136]
If it decreases at 4% every year, then its value becomes:

100% - 4% = 96% = 96/100 = 0.96

At the end of the 1 year its value becomes:  150*(0.96)

At the end of the 2 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150*(0.96)²

At the end of the 3 years its value becomes:  150*(0.96)*(0.96)*(0.96) = 150(0.96)³

So similarly at the end of 12 years, its value becomes 150*(0.96)¹²

=50*(0.96)¹²    simplify with calculator.

<span>≈ 91.91

Value at the end of 12 years becomes ≈ $</span><span>91.91

I hope this helps.
