15. Scott and Tara were asked to find the

Mathematics
1 answer:
Dmitriy789 [7]3 years ago

Answer:

Both Scott and Tara have responded correctly.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of a trapezoid is equal to

A=(1/2)[b1+b2]h

we have

b1=16 cm

b2=24 cm

h=8 cm -----> <em>Note</em> The height is 8 cm instead of 18 cm

substitute

A=(1/2)[16+24](8)

A=160 cm²

<em>Verify Scott 's work</em>

<em>Note</em> Scott wrote A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8) instead of A = 2(24 + 16)(8)

Remember that the Commutative Property establishes "The order of the addends does not alter its result"

so

(24+16)=(16+24)

A = (1/2)(24 + 16)(8)=160 cm²

<em>Verify Tara's work</em>

<em>Note</em> Tara wrote A = (1/2)(16+24)(8) instead of A = (16 + 24)(8)

A = (1/2)(16+24)(8)=160 cm²

Answer:

Angle k is 34.5 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

a circle makes 360 degrees total.  okay so u have to consider the angles given. m arc go= 127

m<0 = 54.5

54.5 times 2 = 109

109 is arc gk

109 + 127+ 55= 291

360-291=69= arc OU

69 divided by 2 is 34.5

Angle k is 34.5 degrees

vichka [17]

Answer:

The area of a trench is 5.5 m² .

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth

As given

Tanya has a garden with a trench around it.

The\ garden\ is\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ 2\frac{1}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 2\ m.

i.e

The\ garden\ is\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ \frac{5}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 2\ m.

Put in the above formula

Area\ of\ garden = \frac{5\times 2}{2}

                             = 5 m²

As given

The\ trench\ and\ garden\ together\ make\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ 3 \frac{1}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 3 m.

i.e

The\ trench\ and\ garden\ together\ make\ a\ rectangle\ with\ width\ \frac{7}{2}\ m\ and\ length\ 3 m.

Area\ of\ garden\ with\ trench = \frac{7\times 3}{2}

Area\ of\ garden\ with\ trench = \frac{21}{2}

                                                  = 10.5 m²

Area of the trench = Area of garden with trench - Area of garden

Put the value in the above

Area of the trench = 10.5 m² - 5 m²

                               = 5.5 m ²

Therefore the area of a trench is 5.5 m² .
