mart [117]

Answer:

The shaded area is $23\ in^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The shaded area is equal to the area of the large square minus the area of the two smaller squares

so

$A=6^{2} -(3^{2} +2^{2})\\ \\ A=(2*3)^{2} -(3^{2} +2^{2})\\ \\A=(2^{2})(3^{2}) -(3^{2} +2^{2})$

Calculate the shaded area

Remember that

$3^{2}=9\\ 2^{2}=4$

substitute

$A=(4)(9) -(9 +4)\\ \\A=36-13\\ \\A=23\ in^{2}$

Find NQ if NP = 13 cm and line l is a segment bisector.

Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

NQ = 26 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A line bisector divides a line into two equal segments.

Given that line l is the bisector of segment NQ, it then means it divides NQ into two equal segments, namely, segment NP and segment PQ.

Thus, NP = ½ of segment NQ

Therefore, if NP = 13 cm,

13 = ½*NQ

multiply both sides by 2

2*13 = NQ

26 = NQ

NQ = 26 cm
