The formula for the area of a trapezoid is:
A= (a+b)/2*h
A=150
h=10
b=14
a=?
So we need to solve for a. Let's plug in the values that we do know...
A= (a+b)/2*h
150=(a+14)/2*10
150=(a/2+14/2)*10
150=(a/2+7)*10
Divide both sides by 10
15=a/2+7
subtract 7 from both sides
8=a/2
multiply both sides by 2
16=a
The other base is 16
<span>When two tangent lines intersect, they form an angle that equals
one half (larger intercepted arc minus the smaller </span><span>intercepted arc)
So, angle CLA = (1/2) (200 -160)
</span><span>Angle CLA = (1/2) (40)
</span><span>Angle CLA = 20 degrees

Tax=tax rate times cost of product
tax=17.50
cost of product=250
17.50=rate times 250
divide both sides by 250
17.50/250=rate
0.07=rate
percent means parts out of 100
0.07/1 times 100/100=7/100=7%
7%=rate
answer is 7% tax
