Answer:
D. 22.5 sq. un.
Step-by-step explanation:
W divides BU so that there is a ratio of 1;2 meaning that there are 3 parts.
That means that 3 parts is BUV; we know that one of those parts is 4.5 sq. un. so 4.5*3=13.5 sq. un. - Also 4.5*2=9 to get WUV
V is the midpoint of the line BS so that means that BUV and UVS are equal
we know that BUV is 13.5 so we multiply that by 2 to get the whole triangle
=27
The last step is to get rid of BVW which we know is 4.5
27-4.5=22.5
