Answer:
The value of is 10º.
Step-by-step explanation:
From Euclidean Geometry we remember that the sum of internal angles within a triangle equals to 180º. We present the resulting triangle after applying some geometric handling in the image attached below. Then, the triangle satisfies the following equation:
(1)
The value of is 10º.
Answer:
A. 1 rectangle, 2 triangles
B. AB = AE = 5
C. 36.5 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>A.</h3>The attached figure shows 1 rectangle (square) and two triangles.
__
<h3>B.</h3>These sides are aligned with the grid, so their length is simply the difference in coordinates along the line:
AB = 2 -(-3) = 5
AE = 3 -(-2) = 5
__
<h3>C.</h3>The area of the square is ...
A = s^2 = 5^2 = 25
The area of triangle BCF is ...
A = 1/2bh = 1/2(3)(5) = 15/2
The area of triangle CDE is ...
A = 1/2bh = 1/2(8)(1) = 4
The total area is the sum of the areas of the square and two triangles:
total area = 25 +7.5 +4 = 36.5 . . . square units
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
We note that segment CE divides the figure into <em>trapezoid</em> ABCE and <em>triangle</em> CDE. The trapezoid has bases 5 and 8, and height 5, so its area is ...
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h = 1/2(5 +8)(5) = 32.5
Triangle CDE has the same area as computed above, 4 square units. So, the total area of the figure is ...
32.5 +4 = 36. 5 . . . . square units
