How do I find the area of a parallelogram and trapezoid

1 answer:

5 0

Parallelogram Area Formula:
Area= base * height

A= bh

Trapezoid Area Formula:
Area= 1/2height * (base1 + base2)

A= 1/2h(b1 + b2)
OR
A= (b1 + b2)/2 * h

This formula can be written and done a couple different ways, and the result will be the same. Note that base1 may be the top edge of a trapezoid and base2 may be the bottom edge. If you have some specific examples, feel free to post them.

Hope this helps a bit! :)

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation

left part + 0.006 = right part + 0.006

----> 0.1x = 0.08x+0.14

left part -0.08x =right part - 0.08x

----> 0.02x=0.14

x=7

Question 5

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

$\frac{4}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find this probability, we have to know:

How many numbers are there in between 5 and 8 inclusive?
How many total numbers are there?

We simply divide the first answer by the second one and get our probability.

So, the numbers are 5,6,7,8 ----- that is 4 numbers

How many numbers are there in total? That is:

0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9 ------- 9 numbers

Thus, the probability is 4/9
