Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot do this unless you are certain that P is the center of the octagon. I don't know if that's solvable from the information given. So I will make the assumption that P is the center.

Determine the midpoint of BC. Call it E.  Draw a line from P to E. By symmetry EP = AP. BE = 1/2 * BC = 19/2 = 9.5 by construction

You have a trapezoid witch is 1/4 the area of the octagon. Three more trapezoids can fit into the octagon.

Formula

Area = (AP + BE)*PE / 2

Givens

AP = 12

BE = 9.5

PE = 12

Solution

Put the givens and constructions into the formula

Area = (12 + 9.5)*12/2

Area = 21.5 * 12/2

Area = 21.5 * 6

Area = 129

That's the area of one of the trapezoids. Multiply the area here by 4.

You get 516.

First symmetrically cut the octagon to get 8 pieces. (So that you will get the idea that this polygon is divided into 8 triangles)

Then find the area of one of the triangles:

Area of Triangle = \frac{1}{2} * b* h

A = \frac{1}{2} × 12 × 19

A = 114 cm²

To find the area of the whole octagon shape:

A = 114 × 8 = 912 cm²

Omar has 3 1/14 cups of dough to make dumplings.If he uses 3/16 cup of dough for each dumpling,how many whole dumplings can Omar
Bumek [7]

Answer:

Omar can make 16 dumplings with some dough to spare

Step-by-step explanation:

you should convert each value to have the same denominator to make the equation easier

3 and 1/14 cups is the same as 43/14 cups of dough

so the total 43/14 needs to be divided by 3/16

43/14 divided by 3/16 = 43/14 * 16/3

=688/42 = 16.3809...

so Omar can make 16 dumplings with some dough to spare

andreev551 [17]

answer:

x=78

since it's an isosceles triangle base angles are equal sum of all angles in traingle is 180 so

24+x+x=180

2x=156

x=78

hope.. this helped <3!!!
