Answer:
<h2>45 in²</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula:
area of a parallelogram = base × height
==================================
By reading the figure :
base = 15
height = 3
Therefore,
The area of the parallelogram = 15 × 3
= 45
Step-by-step explanation:
the surface area consists of 6 individual areas :
front and back (both are equal)
left and right (both are equal)
top and bottom
front and back are trapezoids.
the area of a trapezoid is
(base 1 + base 2)/2 × h
the bases are the 2 parallel sides.
in our case the area of one trapezoid is
(5 + 19)/2 × 12.1 = 145.2 ft²
front and back together then are 290.4 ft².
left and right are 8×14 rectangles:
8×14 = 112 ft²
together they are 224 ft².
the bottom is a 5×8 rectangle :
5×8 = 40 ft²
the top is a 19×8 rectangle :
19×8 = 152 ft²
so, the total surface area is
290.4 + 224 + 40 + 152 = 706.4 ft²
The equation of the perpendicular line is y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)
<h3>How to determine the line equation?</h3>
The equation is given as
y = 7x + 14
Also, from the question
The point is given as
Point = (3, -7)
The equation of a line can be represented as
y = mx + c
Where
Slope = m
By comparing the equations, we have the following
m = 7
This means that the slope of y = 7x + 14 is 7
So, we have
m = 7
The slopes of perpendicular lines are opposite reciprocals
This means that the slope of the other line is -1/7
The equation of the perpendicular lines is then calculated as
y = m(x - x₁) +y₁
Where
m = -1/7
(x₁, y₁) = (3, -7)
So, we have
y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7
Evaluate
y = -1/7(x - 3) - 7
Add 7 to both sides
y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)
Hence, the perpendicular line has an equation of y + 7 = -1/7(x - 3)
