The answer is false because if you attach to triangles together in a way so that the figure would have 4 straight lines, you will get a rectangle. that means half of a rectangle is a triangle, so the area of both cannot be the same even if they have the same base and height.


for example the base and height of both is 3cm and 5cm.

area of the rectangle then would be,
area= base× height
=3cm×5cm=15cmsquared

then the area of the triangle would be,
area= base×height divided by 2
=3cm×5cm÷2= 7.5cm

so your answer is false
hope this helps....

One number is 1/4 of another number. The sum of the two numbers is 5. Find the two numbers. Use a comma to separate your answer
masha68 [24]

Answer: 1, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Number #1 = x
  • Number #2 = \frac{1}{4} x

\frac{1}{4} x+x=5\\\\\frac{1}{4} x+\frac{4}{4} x=5\\\\\frac{5}{4} x=5\\\\5x=4*5\\5x=20\\x=4

  • Number #1 = x = 4
  • Number #2 = \frac{1}{4} x = \frac{1}{4} *4=\frac{4}{4} =1

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

Point of intersection is (-2, -1).

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals bisect each other so we only need to find the midpoint  of one of the diagonals. We'll use the diagonal qs:-

Midpoint = (-8 + 4)/2, (1 + -3)/2
