First, always draw. You learned to draw in kindergarben (Yes I spelled it like that on purpose LOL) for a reason.
1) Draw your rectangle on a piece of paper or paint.
2) Scale factor each side to enlarge which means you're going to multiply.
--- Note if it said 'to reduce' then you would divide.
3) Then find the area by multiplying the two given sides (12 x 6 = 72).
4) Don't forget your unit of measurement - 72ft²
So your answer is D.
B: -(x^2) reflects over the x-axis and +3 shifts it up by 3
Note that the interior angles must add up to 180 degrees: 50+62+m<C = 180.
Then 112 + m<C = 180, so that m<C =68 degrees.
Use the Law of Sines to find the value of a, as follows:
sin 50 deg sin 62 deg
-------------- = ----------------
a 31 cm
31sin 50 31(0.766)
Then 31sin 50 = a*sin 62, and a = --------------- = ---------------- = 26.9 cm
sin 62 0.883
a =
