Answer:
Given:
- area = 18 cm²
- base = 6 cm
- height = (h + 1) cm
Substitute the given values into the equation and solve for h:
expand using distributive property of addition 
:
subtract 3 from both sides:
divide both sides by 3:
<u>To verify</u>:
Half of the base is 3 cm.
If h=5, then the height of the triangle is 6 cm.
Multiplying 3 by 6 is 18.
This matches the given area, so we can verify that h = 5.
Answer:
28
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
49.5 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
We can split the figure into two easier shapes to find the area of; a triangle and a square.
The formula for a triangle is (b*h)1/2. Once we solve we get 24.5 or 24 1/2.
The formula for a square is l*w. Once we solve we get 25.
To find the area of the shaded region, we would add both area and get 49.5 or 49 1/2 square inches.
