The question states that both parts of Noshi's desk were shaped like trapezoids and both had a height of 3.
We know that the formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases of the trapezoid and h is the height. Note: This is like any other form of trying to find the area, because we are doing base times height, however, we need to divide the sum of the bases by 2 to find the average base length.
Let's call the first trapezoid on the left Trapezoid A and the second slanted trapezoid Trapezoid B.
Area of Trapezoid A = (a+b)/2 * h = (5+8)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
Area of Trapezoid B = (a+b)/2 * h = (4+9)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
To find the area of Noshi's total desk, we simply need to add the areas of Trapezoid A and Trapezoid B together.
19.5 feet + 19.5 feet = 39 feet
Therefore, the area of Noshi's desk is 39 feet.
Hope this helps! :)
just divide 17 by 6 and you'll get your mixed number:
2 5/6
a²+b² = c² where a and b are legs and c is the hypotenuse
So...
a²+4²=13²
a²+16=169
a²=153
a=√153
answer: approx. 12.37 units
The slope is:8
Because
M=rise/run
Or
Y2-Y1/X2-X1
Sooo…
-8-0/-3-(-2)
Or 8
Hope this helps:)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 16.6%
B. 16.6%
1/3 x 1/2 = .166 = 16.6%
