To find the amount of fabric for one side of the purse you will find the area of the trapezoidal space that is created. The latch is on the top, so the 2 in is not necessary information.
A = 1/2 h(b1 + b2)
1/2 x 13 x (10 + 16)
A = 169 square inches of fabric will be needed.
SinB = cosC = AC / BC = 8/10 = 4/5;
tgB = ctg C = AC/AB = 8/6 = 4/3, because we use T. Pitagora for calculating AB;
sinC = cosB = AB/ BC = 6/10 = 3/5;
tgC = ctgB = AB/ AC = 6/8 = 3/4.
A ) 15 I think because it the lowest number!
They are both right because the first expression is the perimeter but expanded in terms of length.The second expression is shortened to be a factor expression but they both represent the length.
The benefit of the first one is you can see how it’s expanded and plug the numbers in and the second one is more easy to plug in the numbers with ease.
