Answer:
7. 91 m²
8. 56 in²
9. 105 in²
10. 135 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for the area of a triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh
where b is the base length, and h is the height perpendicular to the base.
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is ...
A= 1/2(b1 +b2)h
where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the parallel bases, and h is the perpendicular distance between them. Note that this formula is virtually identical to the triangle formula, with the triangle 'b' being replaced by (b1+b2).

Fill in the numbers and do the arithmetic. The result is shown in the attachment. (We have used the triangle formula for all, with b1+b2 being used for 'b' to find the area of the trapezoids.)
7. A = 1/2(14 m)(13 m) = 91 m²
8. 56 in²
9. A = 1/2(14 +16 in)(7 in) = 105 in²
10. 135 m²
Answer:
<em>y = - </em>
<em> x + 12 </em>
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 
x - 4
(6, 3)
y - 3 = - (x - 6)
<em>y = - </em><em> x + 12</em>
Answer:
x = 18 (Smaller number)
y = 35 (Larger number)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve, begin by setting up a system of equations.
'x' being the smaller number, while
'y' is the larger number.
We can construct the equations:
x + y = 53
3x = y + 19
Rearrange the second equation to equal 'y':
3x - 19 = y
Plug this value of 'y' into the first equation:
x + 3x - 19 = 53
Combine like terms and simplify:
4x - 19 = 53
4x = 72
x = 18
Plug in this value for 'x' into an equation to solve for 'y':
18 + y = 53
y = 35.
The sum of the measures of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
An isosceles triangle has two congruent sides.
The angles opposite the congruent sides are congruent.
Just like the bottom left angle measures x, the bottom right angle also measures x.
x + x + 38 = 180
2x + 38 = 180
2x = 142
x = 71
