Answer:

520 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to visualize this problem is to sketch a quick diagram.

For this problem, you are given an angle and the length of the side of a triangle. If you look at the diagram, you'll see that the length given is the opposite side of the angle given. For this situation, that means you will use the sine function (refer to SOH-CAH-TOA acronym). Then you plug in the given values and solve for x.

Hope this helps!

Jordan is cutting a 2 meter by 1 1/4 meter into two pieces by its diagonal line
Airida [17]

Question:

Jordan is cutting a 2 meter by 1\frac{1}{4} meter piece of rectangular paper into two pieces along its diagonal. what is the area of each of the pieces?

Answer:

Area of each piece of paper is 1 \frac{1}{4} \ m^2.

Solution:

Length of the paper = 2 m

Width of the paper =  1\frac{1}{4} m =  \frac{5}{4} m

<em>Area of the rectangle = length × width</em>

                                    $=2\times \frac{5}{4}

                                    $= \frac{5}{2} \ m^2

<em>Diagonal of a rectangle divides it into two equal parts.</em>

Area of each piece = Area of the rectangle ÷ 2

                                $=\frac{ \frac{5}{2}}{2}

                                $=\frac{5}{4} \ m^2

                                $=1 \frac{1}{4} \ m^2

Area of each piece of paper is 1 \frac{1}{4} \ m^2.
