Answer:

30 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

this ones kinda tricky but basically you need to dilate it all by 2 (to make the figure twice as big)

technically, it would be 7.5 units bc but bc of the dilation it'd be 30

Answer:

$7.5\:\text{square units}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by the average of the bases multiplied by the height.

What we're given:

Height of 3
Bases of 1 and 4

The average of the bases 1 and 4 is equal to $\frac{4+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}=2.5$

Therefore, the area of the trapezoid is $2.5\cdot 3=\boxed{7.5\:\text{square units}}$

An art museum has a pentagon-shaped room. When drawn to scale on a coordinate grid, the corners of the room are points (18,20):

AURORKA [14]

Answer:

$2\ gal$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

the formula to calculate the distance between two points is equal to

$d=\sqrt{(y2-y1)^{2}+(x2-x1)^{2}}$

we have

$A(18,20),B(4,20),C(4,4),D(16.2),E(22.10)$

step 1

Find the distance AB

we have

$A(18,20),B(4,20)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(20-20)^{2}+(4-18)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(0)^{2}+(-14)^{2}}$

$AB=14\ ft$

step 2

Find the distance BC

we have

$B(4,20),C(4,4)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(4-20)^{2}+(4-4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-16)^{2}+(0)^{2}}$

$BC=16\ ft$

step 3

Find the distance DE

we have

$D(16.2),E(22.10)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(10-2)^{2}+(22-16)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(8)^{2}+(6)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{100}$

$DE=10\ ft$

step 4

Find the distance AE

we have

$A(18,20),E(22.10)$

substitute in the formula

$d=\sqrt{(10-20)^{2}+(22-18)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{(-10)^{2}+(4)^{2}}$

$d=\sqrt{116}$

$AE=10.77\ ft$

step 5

Find out the area of the four walls

To determine the area sum the length sides and multiply by the height of the walls

so

$A=(AB+BC+DE+AE)h$

substitute the given values

The height of the walls is 10 ft

$A=(14+16+10+10.77)10$

$A=(50.77)10$

$A=507.7\ ft^2$

step 6

Determine the number of gallons needed to paint the four walls

we know that

one gallon of paint is enough to cover 400 square feet

using proportion

$\frac{1}{400}\ \frac{gal}{ft^2}=\frac{x}{507.7}\ \frac{gal}{ft^2}\\\\x=507.7/400\\\\x= 1.27\ gal$

Round up

$x=2\ gal$
