Answer: Each triangle:40 cm²
Kite : 80cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a triangle is
1/2bh
The height of the triangle is
h=1/2(10)=5cm
and the base is 16 cm.
The area of each triangle is
= 1/2(16)(5)=40cm^2
2. The total area of the kite is 2 times the area of one triangle.
= 2*40=80cm^2

Answer:
43 and 56/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:
x = Number of gold coins in a chest
1/2x = Number of gold coins taken by the captain
1/4x = Number of gold coins taken by Sally
3 = Number of gold coins left
2. How many coins were in the chest at the start?
Let's write the following equation to solve for x:
1/2x + 1/4x + 3 = x
2x + x + 12 = 4x (Lowest Common Denominator is 4)
4x - 2x - x = 12 (Like terms)
x = 12
<u>There were 12 gold coins in the chest at the start.</u>
