Even without doing the math, (and without having the requisite diagram to view), it seems likely that the rectangle was simply divided along the diagonal. And, if that's the case then the two triangles formed would have the same area. So, if one triangle's area ABC is 600 sq. yds. as the problem states, then the other triangle ACD also would be 600 sq. yds.

But if we do the math anyway, we can get the same result.

Keep in mind that:

P of rectangle = 2 ( l + w)

A of rectangle = (l x w)

A of triangle = h x b divided by 2

I'd say that the length of the rectangle is 40 and the width is 30.

P of rectangle is 2 (30 + 40) = 140 .... check

A of rectangle is 30 x 40 = 1,200 .... check

A of triangle is 30 x 40 divided by 2  = 600 ...... check

Answer:

the answer is 600

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the answer because in the picture its divided evenly which means the area of one side is the same as the other .

yan [13]

Answer:

Halloween question, perfect timing! Your answer would be 2 pounds per friend.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's how we get this:

First, multiply 3/4 by 6. You'll get 4.5. Let's use a decimal for this equation.

Now, you'll divide 9 by 4.5, to get 2. There's our answer. But we want to double-check and see if it's right.

We can do that by multiplying 4.5 by 2, or 2 by 4.5.

4.5 x 2 = 9

Therefore, your answer is 2 pounds per friend.

Hope I helped! ☺

Find the area of the shaded segment of the circle.
vredina [299]

Answer:

Around 5.5 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by finding the area of the segment. Since the rest of the circle that is not in the segment is 240 degrees, the segment is 120 degrees or a third of the circle. You can therefore find the area of that segment with the formula \frac{1}{3} \pi r^2 =3\pi square meters. Now, you need to find the area of the triangle inside the sector. This is more difficult than last time, because it is not a 90 degree angle. However, you can solve this by dividing this triangle into two 30-60-90 triangles, which you know how to find the ratio of sides for. In a 30-60-90 triangle, the hypotenuse is twice the length of the smallest leg, and the larger leg is \sqrt{3} times larger than the smaller leg. In this case, these dimensions are a base of \frac{3}{2} for the smaller leg and \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2} for the larger leg, or the base. Using the triangle area formula and multiplying by 2 (because remember, we divided the big triangle in half), you get \frac{9\sqrt{3}}{4} square meters. Subtracting this from the area of the segment, you get about 5.5 square meters. Hope this helps!

Some students equally share 2 baskets of apples. Each basket has 12 apples. Write an algebraic expression to represent this situ
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

y = \frac{24}{x} is the algebraic expression to represent the situation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Some students equally share 2 baskets of apples.

Each basket has 12 apples.

To Find:

An algebraic expression to represent the situation = ?

Solution:

Let the number of students be x

The number of apple each one gets be y

then it is said that there are 12 apples in one basket.

So in two basket there will be

=> 2 \times 12

=> 24 apples

This 24 apples is to be shared among x students, so

Each student will get

y = \frac{24}{x}
