The bases of a trapezoid are 24 feet and 16 feet. The height of the trapezoid is 12 feet. What is the area of the trapezoid?

1 answer:

4 0

The formula to use is A=(b1+b2)h if one base is 24 and the other one is 16 which equals to 40 when you add then you still have H which is 12 so you could either divide 12 by two to get half or multiply by 12 and then divide it
40•12=480
480 divided by 2= 240
Your final answer should be 240ft

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of its areas is equal to

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its areas is equal to the scale factor squared

In this problem the scale factor is equal to the ratio 10:3

Let

z-------> the scale factor

john ran at a pace of 3.5 miles per hour for a distance of 10.5 miles. how many minutes did it take him to run 10.5 miles? use t

Rainbow [258]

The minutes it takes him to run 10.5 miles is 180 minutes

<h3>How many minutes did it take him to run 10.5 miles?</h3>

The given parameters are

Speed = 3.5 miles per hour

Distance = 10.5 miles

The time is calculated as:

Time = Distance/Speed

So, we have

Time = 10.5 miles/3.5 miles per hour

Evaluate the quotient

Time = 3 hours

Convert to minutes

Time = 180 minutes

Hence, the minutes it takes him to run 10.5 miles is 180 minutes
