Answer:
218
Step-by-step explanation:
Because we need f(n) to calculate f(n+1), we have to calculate our values one step at a time. Starting with f(1) = 1,
f(2) = 5(f(1)) + 3 = 5(1) + 3 = 5+3 = 8
f(3) = 5(8) + 3 = 40 + 3 = 43
f(4) = 5(43) + 3 = 215 + 3 = 218
Area of the triangle = 1/2 * base * <span>height
base = 16 in
</span>height = 16 in
Area = 1/2 * 16 * 16 = 128 in.
There are 6, you'd think there would be 8 but the answer is actually 6. A diagonal is a line segment that connects to vertices, the two vertices chosen do not count when forming the triangle, two vertices that are adjacent to that chosen vertex are NOT included when forming the diagonal. It's confusing, but I hope this helps. If you have any follow up questions I'd love to answer them.
