The area of a trapezoid is the height times the average of the two bases, mathematically:
A=h(b1+b2)/2, in this case h=6in, b1=9in, and b2=7in so
A=6(9+7)/2
A=6*16/2
A=48in^2
Answer:
827 ÷ 4 = 206 with a remainder of 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Three important properties of the diagonals of a rhombus that we need for this problem are:
1. the diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other
2. the diagonals form two perpendicular lines
3. the diagonals bisect the angles of the rhombus
First, we can let O be the point where the two diagonals intersect (as shown in the attached image). Using the properties listed above, we can conclude that ∠AOB is equal to 90° and ∠BAO = 60/2 = 30°.
Since a triangle's interior angles have a sum of 180°, then we have ∠ABO = 180 - 90 - 30 = 60°. This shows that the ΔAOB is a 30-60-90 triangle.
For a 30-60-90 triangle, the ratio of the sides facing the corresponding anges is 1:√3:2. So, since we know that AB = 10, we can compute for the rest of the sides.



Similarly, we have



Now, to find the lengths of the diagonals,


So, the lengths of the diagonals are 10 and 10√3.
Answer: 10 and 10√3 units
