In this attached picture according to the conditions of the problem we have an isosceles trapezoid and since we know that legs are equal (AD=BC=5 cm), we have to calculate bases and height in order to find the area. Working with the triangle BCD, we apply Pythagoras theorem and find that CD = \sqrt{75+25} = 10 cm. Since BDC is a right triangle, applying theorem for the area of triangles, we find that \frac{1}{2} * BF =  \frac{1}{2} * 5 * \sqrt{75} and BF= 0.5\sqrt{75}. Since ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid, triangles ADE and BFC are congruent with Angle Side Angle theorem. Then, DE=FC and with the help of Pythagoras theorem, DE=FC=2.5 cm. Then, AB=EF=5 cm and the area of the trapezoid is  A= BF *  \frac{AB+CD}{2} = 0.5  \sqrt{75}  * \frac{5+10}{2} = 18.75 \sqrt{3}   cm^{2}

If 2x − 4(x + 1) = −12, evaluate x2 − 1.
Vlad [161]
2x-4(x+1)=-13
1) we solve this equation:
2x-4(x+1)=-12
2x-4x-4=-12
-2x=-12+4
-2x=-8
x=-8/-2
x=4

2) we evalute x²-1
x²-1=4²-1=16-1=15
