K:A
5:3 (before)
15:9

since the total number of stamps didn't change, the total ratio should be the same.

7:5(after)
14:10

so this means 1 unit is 10stamps.

14-10=4
4 X 10= 40

Kaye have 40 more stamps than Alberto.

A kite has a height of 36 inches and a width of 30 inches. Explain how to use the area formula for a triangle to find the area o

mote1985 [20]

Height of the kite is = 36 inches.

Width of the kite is = 30 inches

One of the ways to find the area is to draw a vertical line to break the kite into two equal triangles. Mark the base as 36 inches and height as 15 inches .

Now we will use the formula $area=\frac{1}{2}*base*height$ to find the area of each triangle. Then we will add both the areas to find the area of the kite.

Area of 1 triangle = $\frac{1}{2}*36*15$ = 270 square inches

Area of the 2nd triangle is also = 270 square inches

Hence, area of the kite = 270+270 = 540 square inches
