I need you to post a diagram.
However, you are describing a 30 60 90 triangle and here is a good page to learn about those: http://www.1728.org/trig2.htm
1/4:3= 1/4•1/3=1/12acre - size of each section
1/2•1/5=1/10yard
Answer: 112.5 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
I think:
For the triangle:
1/2base(height) = 1/2(9)(7)= 31.5 sq. Units
For the small rectangle:
Length x width= 3 x 9 = 27 sq. Units
For the larger rectangle:
The length must be 16 - 7 - 3 = 6
So length x width = 6 x 9 = 54 sq units
Now add them together:
31.5 + 27 + 54 = 112.5 square units
(1/8), (2/8), (3/8), (4/8), (5/8), (6/8), (7/8)
if u want, 2/8=1/4, 4/8=1/2, 6/8=3/4
