Answer:

Shalini = 12

Poonam = 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p = poonams age

Let s = shalini's age

p = 5s

p+s = 72

Substitute the first equation into the second equation

5s+s = 72

Combine like terms

6s= 72

Divide by 6

6s/6 = 72/6

s = 12

p = 5s =5*12 = 60

Shalini = 12

Poonam = 60

What is the area of this triangle?
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Area of the given triangle = 6.51 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

If we redraw the triangle as shown in the figure attached we get the height of the triangle as x feet and base = 4.3 feet

Therefore area of ΔABC = (1/2) × Height (AD) × Base(BC)

From ΔABD

sin 53 = AD/AB = x/3.8

x = 3.8 × sin 53

= 3.8 × 0.7986 = 3.03 feet

Now area of ΔABC = (1/2)×3.03×4.3 = 6.51 feet²
