The inequality which represents the missing dimension x is x≥1.6 or x≥8 / 5.
Given that the area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet and image is attached below.
We want to find the missing inequality x in the form of inequality.
The figure is assumed to be a right triangle with Root = x and perpendicular = 10ft.
As we know the area of a triangle is half the product of the base and the height.
First of all, we will find the area of the triangle by substituting the given values we get
Area=(1/2)×Base×height
Area=(1/2)×x×10
Area=5x ......(1)
Assume that this area is greater than or equal to 8 square feet.
That means Area≥8ft² ......(2)
Now we will balance equation (1) and equation (2), we get
5x≥8ft²
Furthermore, they we will divide both sides by 5 we get
(5x)/5≥8/5
x≥8/5
x≥1.6
Therefore, the inequality represents the missing size x when the area is larger or equal to 8 square feet is x ≥1.6ft².
