<h3>
Answer: 36 square units</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
Draw a horizontal line to cut the figure into a rectangle on top and a triangle down below.
The rectangle has length and width of 6 and 4 (horizontal and vertical components respectively). The area of this rectangle is 6*4 = 24 square units.
The triangle has a base of 6 and a height of 4. The base and height of any triangle are always perpendicular.
The area of the triangle is base*height/2 = 6*4/2 = 24/2 = 12 square units. If you were to cut out half of the triangle and rearrange things, you'll find that a rectangle can be formed. This rectangle is half in area that of the first rectangle we found. This is why we divide by 2 when finding the area of the triangle.
Once you know the two sub-areas, we add them up to get the overall area: 24+12 = 36 square units.
Sorry it's a bit messy. but I hope you understand and it will help
Answer:
x = 15
y = 15√3
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a special right triangle with angle measures 30° 60° 90°
The side lengths should be x 2x x√3
If the measure of hypotenuse 30 then the side length that sees 30° should be half of it so x = 15 and y = 15√3
29.75/8.5=x/4.5
using the "butterfly method"
8.5x=133.875
/8.5 /8.5
x=15.75
You have to make a proportion
