Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Split the trapezoid as pictured below
Find its height and the upper base, then find the area of the trapezoid.
There are 3 pieces, two of them are 45°×45° and 30°×60°×90° triangles
- The ratio of sides of a 30°×60°×90° triangle is 1 : √3 : 2
- The legs of a 45x45 triangle are equal
<u>The above mentioned properties give us:</u>
- h = 16/2 = 8 m
- b = 8√3 ≈ 13.85 m
- a = h = 8 m
<u>Now find the area:</u>
- A = 1/2( 13 + 8 + 13.85 + 13)*8 = 191.4 m²
Correct choice is B
Answer is <span>C) 1/20 of a foot
1/4 -1/5
= 5/20 - 4/20
=1/20</span>
Yes, your current answer is correct. Divide each term by the divisor.
Plot the points on a graph. Connect the dots into a triangle. See that the height of the triangle is from y=5 down to y=1. So the height is 4 units.
Area of a triangle: A = (1/2)BH
You need to find the length of the base. Which is from point (-4,1) to (0,1). You can use the distance formula r just see from the graph that the base is 4 units.
A = (1/2)(4)(4)
A = 8
** Distance formula fyi
d² = (X-x)² + (Y-y)²
with points (X,Y) and (x,y)
