Answer:

  E)  25.5 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is not carefully drawn, so it is difficult to tell that it is a trapezoid. The "height" of it is BC, the diagonal of a rectangle that is 1 unit by 4 units. The Pythagorean theorem tells you that length is ...

  BC = √(1² +4²) = √17

We notice that the "bases" of the trapezoid (CD and AB) are 1 and 2 times this length. The trapezoid area formula tells us the area is ...

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

  A = 1/2((√17)(1 +2))(√17) = 3/2(17) = 25.5 . . . . square units

_____

<em>Alternate solution</em>

<em>Pick's Theorem</em> is a theorem that can help you find the area of a polygon when its vertices are all on grid points. It tells you the area is ...

  A = i + b/2 -1

where i is the number of grid points interior to the figure, and b is the number of grid points on the boundary. Here, the boundary grid points are those that are labeled plus the one at (-2, 1). Counting the interior grid points gives a total of 24, so the area by Pick's theorem is ...

  A = 24 + 5/2 -1 = 25.5 . . . square units

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Once you're familiar with Pick's theorem (and/or any of a few other methods of computing area from coordinates), you see that <em>the area of any polygon whose vertices are grid points will be an integer multiple of 1/2</em>. The only such answer choice here is choice E.

Answer:

-10+i\sqrt{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

One is given the following expression:

\sqrt{4}-\sqrt{-98}-\sqrt{144}+\sqrt{-128}

In order to simplify and solve this problem, one must keep the following points in mind: the square root function (\sqrt{}) is a way of requesting one to find what number times itself equals the number underneath the radical sign. One must also remember the function of taking the square root of a negative number. Remember the following property: (\sqrt{-1}=i). Simplify the given equation. Factor each of the terms and rewrite the equation. Use the square root property to simplify the radicals and perform operations between them.

\sqrt{4}-\sqrt{-98}-\sqrt{144}+\sqrt{-128}

\sqrt{2*2}-\sqrt{-1*2*7*7}-\sqrt{12*12}+\sqrt{-1*2*8*8}

Take factors from out of under the radical:

\sqrt{2*2}-\sqrt{-1*2*7*7}-\sqrt{12*12}+\sqrt{-1*2*8*8}

2-7i\sqrt{2}-12+8i\sqrt{2}

Simplify,

-10+i\sqrt{2}

Find the value of x.
Paul [167]

Hello!

As we are looking for the opposite side and hypotenuse, we will use the sine.

sin30=1/2

This gives us the equation below.

1/2= 5/x

1/2x=5

x=10

Therefore, x=10.

I hope this helps!
