Answer:
x = 10.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right, use the tangent ratio to find the value of x
tan36° = =
=
Multiply both sides by 15
15 × tan36° = x
⇒ x = 10.9 ( to nearest tenth )
The area of polygon MNOPQR = Area of a rectangle that is 15 square units + Area of a rectangle that is 2 square units.
In the given polygon MNOPQR, side MN is parallel to side RQ and the side MR is parallel to side PQ
We will draw a perpendicular line from point O on the side RQ, which will intersect RQ at point S. So, we can now divide the whole polygon into two different rectangles MNSR and OPQS with the areas as A₁ and A₂ respectively.
In rectangle MNSR, length(MN) = 5 units and width (MR) = 3 units
According to the formula for Area of rectangle,
A₁ = (length)×(width)
A₁ = (5 units)×(3 units)
A₁ = 15 square units
Now in rectangle MNSR, side MN= side RS and side MR = side NS,
so RS= 5 units and NS= 3 units
That means, SQ= RQ- RS = 7-5 = 2 units
and OS= NS - NO = 3- 2 = 1 unit
In rectangle OPQS, we have length(SQ) = 2 units and width(OS) = 1 unit
So, A₂ = (length)×(width)
A₂ = (2 units)×(1 unit)
A₂ = 2 square units
So, the area of polygon MNOPQR = (Area of a rectangle that is 15 square units + Area of a rectangle that is 2 square units)
