Question

The front view of a podium is shown. Bryan wants to paint the front of the podium blue. He decomposed the shape into two triangles and a rectangle to find the area.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Base length:

A = 8.5 m

B = 4 m

Height, h = 2 ft

1 gallon = 350 ft^2

Area of trapezoid = 1/2 × (A + B) × h

= 1/2 × (8.5 + 4) × 2

= 12.5 ft^2

1 gallon = 350 ft^2

2 gallons = 700 ft^2

1 podium = 12.5 ft^2

= 700/12.5 podium

= 56 podiums will be painted with 2 gallons of paint.
