Please help !!!!ASAP!!!!Please answer the Picture below.

Answer 1

Answer:

Part A) shorter base = 6 yd      longer base = 8 yd    

Part B) C. 42 yds²

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A) The width and the length of the shorter side are the same, at 6 yds each. The longer base is 8 yds because there is a spot of 1 yd on both sides of the shorter side, making the longer side.

Part B) Find the area of the square first.

A = L x W

A = 6 x 6

A = 36 yds²

Next, find the area of a triangle and multiply the answer by 2 because there are two triangles.

A = 1/2bh

A = 1/2(1)(6)

A = 1/2(6)

A = 3(2)

A = 6 yds²

Add together all of the area measurements to find the area of the entire figure

36 + 6 = 42 yds²
