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}

We can represent the cost of the notebooks with by saying 0.75n, and the cost of the pens by saying 0.55p.

0.75n+0.55p will be the total cost before tax.  Now, we need to add on tax.  Tax will be 0.0625 times the total amount, so we can represent the cost by saying 

(0.75n+0.55p) + 0.0625(0.75n+0.55p), so the answer is B.

Hello! How do I find the surface area of this prism? Thanks!
Studentka2010 [4]
Answer: Choice C) 124 square cm

------------------------------------------------------------------

Explanation:

Let's calculate the area of the trapezoid shown
b1 and b2 are the parallel bases; h is the height of the 2D trapezoid
b1 = 2
b2 = 5
h = 1.5

A = h*(b1+b2)/2
A = 1.5*(2+5)/2
A = 1.5*7/2
A = 10.5/2
A = 5.25
The area of one 2D trapezoid is 5.25 sq cm
There are two of these trapezoids that form the base faces of the trapezoidal prism. So the total base area is 2*5.25 = 10.5 sq cm
Keep this value (10.5) in mind. We'll use it later.

------------

Now onto the lateral surface area (LSA)
It turns out that the formula for the LSA is
LSA = p*d
where 
p = perimeter of the trapezoid shown
d = depth or height of the 3D trapezoid (I'm not using h as it was used earlier)
This formula works for any polygonal base. It doesn't have to be a trapezoid.

In this case the perimeter is,
p = 1.7+2+2.65+5
p = 11.35

So
LSA = p*d
LSA = 11.35*10
LSA = 113.5

Add this LSA to the base area found earlier
10.5+113.5 = 124

The total surface area is 124 square cm

25.3% 

you have to do 4.06-3.24

then do that number divided by the original number then times by 100
