Answer:

1. area of new pen = 11 \frac{1}{4} ft^{2}

2. i. 5 feet by 2\frac{1}{4} feet

ii. 2 ½ feet by 4 ½ feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The size of the pen as planned = 5 ft long by 4 ½ ft wide

Area of the pen = length x width

                           = 5 x 4 ½

                           = 5 x \frac{9}{2}

Area of the pen = \frac{45}{2}

                           = 22 ½ ft^{2}

But, Krista has to make the pen ½ the size of planned. So that;

area of new pen = ½ x 22 ½

        = ½ x \frac{45}{2}

        = \frac{45}{4}

        = 11 \frac{1}{4}

area of new pen = 11 \frac{1}{4} ft^{2}

The area of the new pen would be 11 \frac{1}{4} ft^{2}.

The possible values she could use are:

i. 5 feet by 2\frac{1}{4} feet

ii. 2 ½ feet by 4 ½ feet

What is the value of x in the triangle?
topjm [15]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

sin30° = \frac{1}{2} , then

sin30° = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} = \frac{x}{8} = \frac{1}{2} ( cross- multiply )

2x = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 4
