x = 3

Cloud [144]

Part a : you could draw a line from each corner to the middle
This would give you 7 triangles in total

Part b : area of one triangle : 4.5*7.8 = 35.1 / 2 = 17.55in <-- area of 1 triangle

Part c : so if there are 7 triangles and the area of 1 triangle is 17.55, you would do:
7 * 17.55 = 122.85
