Whats the Area? how do i find it? In these specific questions?

just olya [345]

The formula for finding the area of a square is:
${s}^{2}$

The formula for finding the area of a triangle is:
$\frac{1}{2} bh$

So for the square the area would be:
${2x}^{2} \times {2x}^{2} = {4x}^{2}$

The area for the triangle would be:

$\frac{1}{2} {2c}^{3} \times 4c = {4c}^{2}$

svet-max [94.6K]

Answer:

337.5 and also 202.5

Step-by-step explanation:

do 8x = 540 since 5 and 3 are in a ratio... so you get 5x plus 3x. Then you solve for x and get 67.5..67.5 times 3 is 202.5 and 67.5 times 5 is 337.5.
