Question

Marco is making a kite, using sticks for its diagonals. One stick is 2 feet long and the other is 3 feet long. How much material will Marco need to make the kite?

Answer 1

Answer:

I just did it and the answer is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Marco will need $3\ ft^{2}$ of material to make the kite

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To know how much material Marco will need to make the kite, the area must be calculated.

Remember that the area of the kite is equal to

$A=\frac{1}{2}[d1*d2]$

where

d1 and d2 are the diagonals of the kite

we have

$d1=2\ ft$

$d2=3\ ft$

substitute

$A=\frac{1}{2}[2*3]=3\ ft^{2}$
