The artist needs 180.5 square inches of material to create the kite.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; The area of a kite is calculated by multiplying
with the product of the diagonal lengths. Assume p is the diagonal length from the left to the right side and q is the diagonal length from the top to bottom.
p = 9.5 inches + 9.5 inches = 19 inches.
q = 7 inches + 12 inches = 19 inches.
Step 2; Area of the given kite is found using p and q by the following method;
Area of the kite =
× (19 × 19) = 180.5 square inches.
So the
option is the amount of material she requires.
