Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
Area of trapezium = ½*(AD + BC)*AB
Area = 42 cm²
AD = (x + 8) cm
BC = (x + 5) cm
AB = x cm
Plug in the values into the equation
42 = ½((x + 8) + (x + 5))*x
42 = ½((x + 8 + x + 5)*x
42 = ½(2x + 13)*x
Multiply both sides by 2
42*2 = (2x + 13)*x
84 = 2x² + 13x
2x² + 13x = 84
Subtract both sides by 84
2x² + 13x - 84 = 0
There's really no such thing as the value of a triangle.
Every triangle has three sides, three angles, a base, a height, and an area,
and there could be problems that ask us to find any one of those.
Whatever we need to find, the process is always the same:
-- Take the information that's given.
-- Gather up everything you can remember that talks about a relationship
between what you're given and what you need to find.
-- Use them together to find the missing value.
It is number 3 I am pretty sure if it’s wrong I’m sorry but I got it right on mine
The minimum function determines the lowest number in a range!
