<h3>Given</h3>

1) Trapezoid BEAR with bases 11.5 and 6.5 and height 8.5, all in cm.

2) Regular pentagon PENTA with side lengths 9 m

<h3>Find</h3>

The area of each figure, rounded to the nearest integer

<h3>Solution</h3>

1) The area of a trapezoid is given by

... A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h

... A = (1/2)(11.5 +6.5)·(8.5) = 76.5 ≈ 77

The area of BEAR is about 77 cm².

2) The conventional formula for the area of a regular polygon makes use of its perimeter and the length of the apothem. For an n-sided polygon with side length s, the perimeter is p = n·s. The length of the apothem is found using trigonometry to be a = (s/2)/tan(180°/n). Then the area is ...

... A = (1/2)ap

... A = (1/2)(s/(2tan(180°/n)))(ns)

... A = (n/4)s²/tan(180°/n)

We have a polygon with s=9 and n=5, so its area is

... A = (5/4)·9²/tan(36°) ≈ 139.36

The area of PENTA is about 139 m².

Find the value of x please and thank you

Given:

In triangle DEF, HG is parallel to DF.

To find:

The value of x.

Solution:

In triangles DEF and GEH,

\angle DE F\cong \angle GEH          (Common angle)

\angle EDF\cong \angle EGH          (Corresponding angle)

\Delta DE F\sim \Delta GEH             (By AA property of similarity)

We know that corresponding sides of similar triangle are proportional.

\dfrac{DE}{GE}=\dfrac{DF}{GH}

\dfrac{9+(x+5)}{x+5}=\dfrac{12}{6}

\dfrac{x+14}{x+5}=2

x+14=2(x+5)

x+14=2x+10

Isolating variable terms, we get

x-2x=-14+10

-x=-4

x=4

Therefore, the value of x is equal to 4.
