So I have the same problem with you
The question states that both parts of Noshi's desk were shaped like trapezoids and both had a height of 3.
We know that the formula for area of a trapezoid is (a+b)/2 * h, where a and b are bases of the trapezoid and h is the height. Note: This is like any other form of trying to find the area, because we are doing base times height, however, we need to divide the sum of the bases by 2 to find the average base length.
Let's call the first trapezoid on the left Trapezoid A and the second slanted trapezoid Trapezoid B.
Area of Trapezoid A = (a+b)/2 * h = (5+8)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
Area of Trapezoid B = (a+b)/2 * h = (4+9)/2 * 3 = 13/2 * 3 = 6.5 * 3 = 19.5 feet
To find the area of Noshi's total desk, we simply need to add the areas of Trapezoid A and Trapezoid B together.
19.5 feet + 19.5 feet = 39 feet
Therefore, the area of Noshi's desk is 39 feet.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
7. 7.8
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use Tan of this angle to find the missing side (in this case, the side adjacent to the angle measuring 57°)
Tan A = (opposite side)/(adjacent side)
Tan 57° = 12/x
solve for x
x(Tan 57°) = 12
x = 12/(Tan 57°)
x = 7.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth)
Answer:
<h2>m arc WZY = 222°</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Look at the picture.
m∠WOY = 2(m∠WZY)
We have m∠WZY = 69°. Therefore m∠WOY = 2(69°) = 138°.
m arc WZY = 360° - 138° = 222°
