Answer: C)10.5


Step-by-step explanation:

Using distance formula,

Height of triangle =YW=\sqrt{(5-8)^2+(-1-(-1))^2}=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(0)^2}=\sqrt{9}=3\ units

Base of triangle (side opposite to the vertex of triangle from which for altitude is formed)XZ=\sqrt{(5-5)^2+(4-(-3))^2}=\sqrt{(0)^2+(7)^2}=\sqrt{49}=7\ units

Thus the area of the triangle=\frac{1}{2}\times\ base\times\ height

=\frac{1}{2}\times3\times7=10.5\ units

Hence, the area of triangle = 10.5 units

2. El perimetro de un rectangulo es 64 pies. Su largo es 12 pies mas que 3 veces su ancho. Halla las dimensiones del rectangulo
Afina-wow [57]
Ancho= x
Largo= 3x+12 ("12 pies más (adición) que 3 veces (multiplicación) su ancho (x)")

<span>En el problema incluyen el perímetro (la suma de todos los lados de una figura). </span>En un rectángulo, los lados opuestos son congruentes, así que para calcular el valor de x, tenemos que sumar nuestras ecuaciones.

(3x+12)+(3x+12)+x+x=64
8x=64-24
x=40/8
x=5

Luego lo único que queda hacer es substituir el valor de x en cada ecuación para calcular los valores que te piden.
