Answer:
1.08
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Part</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>i</u><u>)</u>
1) AB is perpendicular to BC, ED is perpendicular to CD, BC = CD (given)
2) Angles ABC and CDE are right angles (perpendicular lines form right angles)
3) Angles ABC and CDE are equal (all right angles are equal)
4) Angles ACB and DCE are equal (vertical angles are equal)
5) Triangles ABC and EDC are congruent (ASA)
<u>Part</u><u> </u><u>(</u><u>ii</u><u>)</u>
6) AB = DE (corresponding parts of congruent triangles are equal)
Formula for the area of the triangle:
1/2 bh
b = base
h = height
#6.
Area = 36 in²
Base = 18 in
36 = 1/2(18)h
36 = 9h
36 ÷ 9 = h
4 = h
height = 4 in
#7.
Area = 2 ft²
Height = 1 ft
2 = 1/2 b (1)
2 = 1/2 b
2 ÷ 1/2 = b
4 = b
Base = 4 ft
#8.
Area = 42 in²
Base = 12 in
42 = 1/2 (12) h
42 = 6h
42 ÷ 6 = h
7 = h
Height = 7 in
Notice that the answers have no exponents (²). That is because they are used only on the area of shapes as units.
Since you find the area by multiplying things together, for example x · x = x², the exponent is there.
You do not need to worry about this being in the calculation. This will just be in units such as:
cm²
ft²
in²
m²
Just remember to use these exponents in the units for the areas.
