Answer:
368 sq. units.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a square of side lengths 20 units and we cut four congruent isosceles right triangles from the corners of the square.
Now, the four isosceles right triangles have one leg equal to 4 units.
Therefore, the area of four triangles = sq. units.
Now, we have the area of the given square is (20 × 20) = 400 sq. units.
Therefore, the area of the remaining octagon will be (400 - 32) = 368 sq. units. (Answer)
*I am assuming that the hexagons in all questions are regular and the triangle in (24) is equilateral*
(21)
Area of a Regular Hexagon: square units
(22)
Similar to (21)
Area = square units
(23)
For this case, we will have to consider the relation between the side and inradius of the hexagon. Since, a hexagon is basically a combination of six equilateral triangles, the inradius of the hexagon is basically the altitude of one of the six equilateral triangles. The relation between altitude of an equilateral triangle and its side is given by:
Hence, area of the hexagon will be: square units
(24)
Given is the inradius of an equilateral triangle.
Substituting the value of inradius and calculating the length of the side of the equilateral triangle:
Side = 16 units
Area of equilateral triangle = square units
