Question

Can somebody help me with this question?

Answer 1

Answer:

86 yd

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of the shaded region is 2924 yd²

let b the doted side next y :

the area of the total triangle is :

A = (y+b)*68/2 = 2924+ b*68/2

• $\frac{(y+b)*68}{2}$ = $\frac{b*68}{2}$ + 2924
• $\frac{68*(y+b-b)}{2}$ = 2924
• 68*y/2 = 2924
• 68y = 2*2924
• y= (2*2924)/68
• y= 86 yd
