What is the area of the parllelogtam shown below
Umnica [9.8K]
<h3>Answer: 16 square units</h3>

Let x be the height of the parallelogram. Right now it's unknown, but we can solve for it using the pythagorean theorem. Focus on the right triangle. It has legs a = 3 and b = x, with hypotenuse c = 5

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

3^2 + x^2 = 5^2

9 + x^2 = 25

x^2 = 25-9

x^2 = 16

x = sqrt(16)

x = 4

This is a 3-4-5 right triangle.

The height of the parallelogram is 4 units.

We have enough info to find the area of the parallelogram

Area of parallelogram = base*height

Area of parallelogram = 4*4

Area of parallelogram = 16 square units

Coincidentally, the base and height are the same, which isn't always going to be the case. The base is visually shown as the '4' in the diagram. The height is the dashed line, which also happens to be 4 units long.

343 or how to solve LCM OR GCF Since 1 divides into everything, then the greatest common factor in this case is just 1. When 1 is the GCF, the numbers are said to be "relatively" prime; that is, they are prime, relative to each other. Then the GCF is 1 and the LCM is 2 × 2 × 2 × 3 = 24.

Last Tuesday was silly hat day at Toby's school. 74 students wore a silly hat and 666 students did not. What percentage of the s
valina [46]

Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

The total population of students will be equal to the sum of both those who wore the silly hat and those who didn't hence

Total students= 74+666=740

Number of students who wore silly hat is given as 74 hence when expressed as a percentage of the total students' population we get that

percentage of the students wore a silly hat=\frac {74\times 100}{740}=10\%

Therefore, 10% of students wore a silly hat last Tuesday
