AB = 15
CD = 15
Distance from AB to CD = 10
the formula of area K= b*h
K= 15*10 = 150

Let

A(-4,9)\\B(11,9)\\C(5,-1) \\D(-10,-1)\\E(-4.-1)          

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

Parallelogram is a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel and equal in length

so

AB=CD \\AD=BC

The area of a parallelogram is equal to

A=B*h  

where

B is the base

h is the height

the base B is equal to the distance AB

the height h is equal to the distance AE

Step 1

<u>Find the distance AB</u>

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

A(-4,9)\\B(11,9)      

substitute the values

d=\sqrt{(9-9)^{2}+(11+4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(15)^{2}}

dAB=15\ units

Step 2

<u>Find the distance AE</u>

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}

A(-4,9)\\E(-4.-1)      

substitute the values

d=\sqrt{(-1-9)^{2}+(-4+4)^{2}}

d=\sqrt{(-10)^{2}+(0)^{2}}

dAE=10\ units

Step 3

<u>Find the area of the parallelogram</u>

The area of a parallelogram is equal to

A=B*h

A=AB*AE

substitute the values

A=15*10=150\ units^{2}

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

the area of the parallelogram is 150\ units^{2}

Which measurement is the largest 6 kilometers 60 meters 600 centimeters 6000 millimeters
Tju [1.3M]

6 kilometers is the greatest,but arranging from greatest to least: 6km, 60m, 600 cm or 6000mm


60 meters = 60 meters * 1km/1000 meters = 0.06 km600 centimeters = 600 cm * 1m/100cm * 1km/1000m = 0.006 km6000 millimeters = 6000mm * 1m/1000mm * 1km/1000m = 0.006km

Answer:

The width of the window should be 7.6\ ft and the height of the window should be 3.8\ ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The circumference of a semicircle (window) is equal to

C=\pi r

we have that

C=12\ ft

\pi=3.14

substitute and solve for r

12=(3.14)r

r=12/3.14=3.8\ ft

so

the width of the window is equal to the diameter of the semicircle

so

The width of the window should be 3.8*2=7.6\ ft and the height of the window should be 3.8\ ft
