24 thirds (24/3) or 8 (simplified)
First, calculate the area of the square, which is 25
next, find the area of one half of the triangle by multiplying 2.5 and 4 (10), then dividing that by 2 (5).
since the two half’s of the triangle are symmetrical, just add 5 and 5 to get 10.
add the area of the triangle (10) and the square (25) to get the total area.
the answer should be 35
hope this helps!
Multiply the numbers on the major axis which are 2 and -9 to get -18. Subtract from that 3*4 = 12. So -18-12 = -30. That's the determinant.
Typically when a polygon has more sides, the angles get smaller.
