For this case we have:
 a = 30 cm
 c = 16 cm
 We look for the length of the diagonal:
 d = x + y
 Where,
 For x:
 a ^ 2 = x ^ 2 + x ^ 2
 x = a / root (2) = 30 / root (2) = 21.2132 cm
 For y:
 c ^ 2 = y ^ 2 + y ^ 2
 y = c / root (2) = 16 / root (2) = 11.3137 cm
 The diagonal is:
 d = x + y
 d = 21.2132 + 11.3137
 d = 32.5269 cm
 Then, the height is:
 h = h1 + h2
 For h1:
 h1 = root (x ^ 2 - (a / 2) ^ 2) = root ((21.2132) ^ 2 - (30/2) ^ 2)
 h1 = 15 cm
 For h2:
 h2 = root (y ^ 2 - (c / 2) ^ 2) = root ((11.3137) ^ 2 - (16/2) ^ 2)
 h2 = 8 cm
 Finally:
 h = h1 + h2
 h = 15 + 8
 h = 23 cm
 Then, the area is:
 A = (1/2) * (a + c) * (h)
 A = (1/2) * (30 + 16) * (23)
 A = 529 cm ^ 2
 Answer:
 
the area of an isosceles trapezoid is:
 
A = 529 cm ^ 2

The point of a square pyramid is cut off, making each lateral face of the pyramid a trapezoid with the dimensions shown.
omeli [17]

Answer:

The area of one trapezoidal face of the figure is 2 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The complete question is</em></u>

The point of a square pyramid is cut off, making each lateral face of the pyramid a trapezoid with the dimensions shown. What is the area of one trapezoidal face of the figure?

we know that

The area of a trapezoid is given by the formula

A=\frac{1}{2}(b_1+b_2)h

where

b_1 and b-2 are the parallel sides

h is the height of the trapezoid (perpendicular distance between the parallel sides)

we have

h=1\ in\\b_1=1\ in\\b_2=3\ in

substitute the given values in the formula

A=\frac{1}{2}(1+3)(1)

A=2\ in^2

The price of a mobile phone decreased from $375 to $250 during a clearance sale. What is the percent of decrease in the price?
Tresset [83]
So decrease is 375-250=75

so convert 75/375 to percent
percent means part out of 100 so 
x/100=x%

divide 125/375=0.3333/1

multiply by 100/100=33/100=33%

the answer is 33% or B
