What is the area of this figure?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alenkinab [10]3 years ago
3 0

Problem setup:

The shape is way too complicated by itself, so I cut the shape into 5 different parts.

Please refer to the attached image or my answer will not make much sense.

Shape 1:

This is a triangle. The base is 3 and the height is 2. Thus, the area is:

A=\dfrac{1}{2}*3*2

=3

Shape 1 has an area of 3 square units.

Shape 2:

This shape is also a triangle. The base is 4 and the height is 2. Thus, the area is:

A=\dfrac{1}{2}*4*2

=4

Shape 2 has an area of 4 square units.

Shape 3:

This a unit square (the side lengths are 1).

Thus, Shape 3 has an area of 1 square unit.

Shape 4:

This shape is a rectangle. The base is 3 and the height is 4. Thus, the area is:

A=3*4

=12

Shape 4 has an area of 12 square units.

Shape 5:

This shape is also a rectangle. The base is 4 and the height is 2. Thus, the area is:

A=4*2

=8

Shape 5 has an area of 8 square units.

Total shape:

Add the areas of all 5 shapes to find the area of the shaded figure.

A=3+4+1+12+8

=26

The figure has a total area of 26 square units.

Side notes:

There is a way to solve this problem by only dividing this into only 3 different shapes, can you figure it out?

Let me know if you need a hint or any clarifications, thanks!

Answer:

y=1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

if a linear equation has a parallel function then it's going to have to be the same slope as the equation. ie

y=2x+3

and

y=2x-2

are paralell

Ariel was told the x intercept and the y intercept of a line with a positive slope. Yet, it was impossible for Ariel to find the
alexdok [17]

A line has the following standard equation form:

y = m x + b

where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

 

So if Ariel cannot find the slope, then this would only mean that m = 0, there is no slope. And hence the line is either a straight vertical line or straight horizontal line.

 

Answer:

<span>There is no slope</span>
