What is the answer to the area question

Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project he needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dennis is cutting construction paper into rectangles for a project.

He needs to cut one rectangle that is 12 inches times 15 1/4 inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$15\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(15\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{61}{4}$

So the area of 1st rectangle is

$A_1 = 12\times \frac{61}{4} = 183 \: in^{2}$

He needs to cut another rectangle that is 10 1/3"" x 10 1/4""

The symbol " means inches

First convert the mixed fraction to improper fraction

$10\frac{1}{3} = \frac{(10\times3) + 1}{3} = \frac{31}{3}$

$10\frac{1}{4} = \frac{(10\times4) + 1}{4} = \frac{41}{4}$

So the area of 2nd rectangle is

$A_2 = \frac{31}{3}\times \frac{41}{4} = 105.91 \: in^{2}$

The total construction paper needed for this project is

$A = A_1 + A_2\\\\A = 183 + 105.91\\\\A = 288.91 \: in^{2}$

Therefore, Dennis need 288.91 square inches of construction paper for his project.

Find the area of the shape below

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

204 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

triangle on the left:

A= l x w x 1/2

A = 12 x 5 x 1/2

A = 30 ft^2

triangle on the right:

Same thing

A = 30 ft^2

square in the middle:

A = l x w

A = 12 x 12

A = 144 ft^2

Add them up:

30 + 30 + 144 = 204 ft^2

How would I find the value of X in this equation

slava [35]

Sum of angles In all triangles are 180....line DAC is horizontal and therefore is 180 degrees ....so minus 180 degrees from 105 and you get 75 degrees....and since the sum of all angles in a triangle is 180...add 75 and 67 which would be 142 degrees ...then minus 142 from 180 degrees to get 38 degrees for x
