The base of the triangle decreases by 30% and the height increases by 20%.

sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Area decreases by 16%

Step-by-step explanation:

Use formula for the area of the triangle

$A=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \text{Base}\cdot \text{Height}$

Initial triangle:

The base is 18 cm

The height is 5 cm

The area is

$A_{initial}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 18\cdot 5=45\ cm^2$

New triangle:

The base is $(1-0.3)\cdot 18=0.7\cdot 18=12.6\ cm$

The height is $(1+0.2)\cdot 5=1.2\cdot 5=6\ cm$

The area is

$A_{new}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 12.6\cdot 6=37.8\ cm^2$

Area decreases by

$100\%-\dfrac{37.8}{45}\cdot 100\%=100\%-84\%=16\%$

Kallisto built a rectangular sign that measured 2 and 3/4. The width is 1 and 1/4 shorter than the length. To find the area, mul

prisoha [69]

Answer:

l = 1 5/16

w = 1/16

A = 21/16 x 1/16 = 21/256

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = 11/4

l = length

w = l - 5/4

2l + 2(l - 5/4) = 11/4

2l + 2l - -5/2 = 1/4

multiply each side by 4

8l + 8l - 10 = 11

16l = 21

l = 21/16 or 1 5/16

width = 21/16 - 20/16 = 1/16
