Answer: The Answer is A
Step-by-step explanation:
i think it's right
Complement adds to 90
complement of A is 90-A
supplement is adds to 180
supplemetn of A is 180-A
2(90-A) is -40+180-A
2(90-A)=-40+180-A
2(90-A)=140-A
distribute
180-2A=140-A
add 2A to both sides
180=140+A
minus 140 both sides
40=A
A=40 degres
Answer:
98 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
There are a couple of ways you can think about this one. Perhaps easiest is to treat it as a square with a triangle cut out of it. The cutout triangle has a base (across the top) of 14 ft and a height of 14 ft, so its area is ...
A = (1/2)(14 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²
Of course the area of the square from which it is cut is ...
A = (14 ft)² = 196 ft²
So, the net area of the two triangles shown is ...
A = (196 ft²) - (98 ft²) = 98 ft²
_____
Another way to work this problem is to attack it directly. Let the base of the left triangle be x. Then the base of the right triangle is 14-x, and their total area is ...
A = A1 + A2 = (1/2)(x ft)(14 ft) + (1/2)((14-x) ft)(14 ft)
We can factor out 7 ft to get ...
A = (7 ft)(x ft + (14 -x) ft)
A = (7 ft)(14 ft) = 98 ft²
