Answer:

24 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of the trapezium, we must know the length CD. That means we must know the length BC. Fortunately, the perimeter of ABCF is given, so we have ...

P = 2(AB +BC)

BC = (P/2) -AB = (20 cm)/2 - 6 cm = 4 cm

Then CD is ...

CD = BD -BC = 9 cm -4 cm = 5 cm

The area of the trapezium is given by the formula ...

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

A = (1/2)(5 cm + 3 cm)(6 cm) = 24 cm²

The area of trapezium CDEF is 24 cm².

What is the equation of the line that passes through (-2, 2) and (1, -4)?

poizon [28]

Answer:

y = - 2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Calculate m using the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ = (- 2, 2) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (1, - 4)

m = $\frac{-4-2}{1+2}$ = $\frac{-6}{3}$ = - 2, thus

y = - 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute either of the 2 points into the partial equation

Using (- 2, 2), then

2 = 4 + c ⇒ c = 2 - 4 = - 2

y = - 2x - 2 ← equation of line

271+425 use rounding or compatible numbers to estimate the sum

Irina-Kira [14]

271 rounded is 300, and 425 rounded is 400, so you could estimate the sum by adding 300 and 400, which equals 700.
