The area of the trapezoid is 40 square units. What is the height of the trapezoid? __ Units

Mathematics

we know that

The area of a trapezoid is equal to

A=\frac{1}{2}(b1+b2)h

where

b1 and b2 are the parallel bases of the trapezoid

h is the height of the trapezoid

In this problem we have

b1=6\ units\\b2=10\ units\\A=40\ units^{2}

substitute in the formula

40=\frac{1}{2}(6+10)h

Solve for h

40*2=16h

h=80/16=5\ units

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

The height of the trapezoid is 5\ units

The answer is 5. The formula for area of trapezoid is A=a+b/2*h
When you input 40 for A and 6 for a and 10 for b, then you should get 5
hope this helps:))

Answer:

1. The possible roots are ±1, ±2, ±3, ±6. These are the factors of the trailing constant (6) divided by the factors of the leading coefficient (1). When the leading coefficient is 1, the possible roots are the factors of the constant

2. The polynomial is easier to evaluate when it is written in Horner form:

 f(x) = ((x -4)x +1)x +6

To show that 2 is a zero, we want to find f(2):

 f(2) = ((2 -4)2 +1)2 +6 = (-4 +1)2 +6 = -6 +6 = 0

 f(2) = 0, so 2 is one of the zeros of this function

3.  Using synthetic division (attached) or polynomial long division, we can divide the given polynomial by (x-2) to find the remaining factors. This division gives (x^2 -2x -3), which can be factored as (x -3)(x +1), so the three actual roots are ...

 x = 2 (from above), x = 3, x = -1 (from our factorization)

4. In factored form, the polynomial can be written ...

 f(x) = (x +1)(x -2)(x -3)

The first factor was found from the fact that 2 was given as a zero of the function. For any zero "a", a factor of the polynomial is (x-a).

The remaining factors were found by factoring the quadratic trinomial that resulted from the division of f(x) by x-2. That trinomial is x^2 -2x -3.

There are a number of methods that can be used to factor x^2 -2x -3. Again, the rational root theorem can help. It suggests that ±1 and ±3 are possible roots.
