Find the area of the polygon. A = __ft squared

1 answer:

Nataliya [291]3 years ago

Answer:

28.5^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is, b(base)+c(height)= b+c over 2. b+c/2.

B=19ft in this problem.

C=38ft

Knowing this, we can further simplify.

19+38/2

Now, we add 19 and 38.

(57)

57/2= 28.5

So, the anwser is 28.5^2

What are the coordinates of the centroid of a triangle with vertices A(−3, 1) , B(1, 6) , and C(5, 2) ? Enter your answer in the

<u>ANSWER</u>: The centroid is (1,3)

<u>Explanation:</u>

The centroid is the intersection of the medians of the triangle.

So we need to find the equation of any two of the medians and solve simultaneously.

Since the median is the straight line from one vertex to the midpoint of the opposite side, we find the midpoint of any two sides.

We find the midpoint of AC using the formula;

$N=(\frac{x_1+x_2}{2}, \frac{y_1+y_2}{2})$

$N=(\frac{-3+5}{2}, \frac{1+2}{2})$

$N=(\frac{2}{2}, \frac{3}{2})$

$N=(1, \frac{3}{2})$

The equation of the median passes through $B(1,6)$ and $N=(1, \frac{3}{2})$ .

This line is parallel to the y-axis hence has equation

$x=1$ -------first median.

We also find the midpoint M of BC.

$M=(\frac{1+5}{2}, \frac{6+2}{2})$

$M=(\frac{6}{2}, \frac{8}{2})$

$M=(3, 4)$

The slope of the median, AM is

$Slope_{AM}=\frac{4-1}{3--3}$

$Slope_{AM}=\frac{3}{6}$

$Slope_{AM}=\frac{1}{2}$

The equation of the median AM is given by;

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

We use the point M and the slope of AM.

$y-4=\frac{1}{2}(x-3)$

$2y-8=(x-3)$

$2y-x=-3+8$

$2y-x=5$ -------Second median

We now solve the equation of the two medians simultaneously by putting $x=1$ in to the equation of the second median.

$2y-1=5$

$2y=5+1$

$2y=6$

$y=3$

Hence the centroid has coordinates $(1,3)$
