The two horizontal lines ate straight and parallel lines. It is established that the sum of the angles on a straight line is 180 degrees. Looking at the given figure, angle 5 and angle 6 are on a straight line. Therefore
Step-by-step explanation: The top half of the kite is 6 in times 17 in because 8.5 + 8.5 = 17 so its 102. Half of 102 is 51 so 51 is the area of the top half. The bottom half is 13 in times 17 in which equals 221. Half of 221 is 110.5. Then 110.5 + 51 = 161.5... So your answer is 161.5 square inches.
