What is the area of the composite figure

Mathematics

Answer:

Area of composite figure = 216 cm²

Hence, option A is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

The composite figure consists of two figures.

1) Rectangle

2) Right-angled Triangle

We need to determine the area of the composite figure, so we need to find the area of an individual figure.

Determining the area of the rectangle:

Given

Length l = 14 cm

Width w = 12 cm

Using the formula to determine the area of the rectangle:

A = wl

substituting  l = 14 and w = 12

A = (12)(14)

A = 168 cm²

Determining the area of the right-triangle:

Given

Base b = 8 cm

Height h = 12 cm

Using the formula to determine the area of the right-triangle:

A = 1/2 × b × h

A = 1/2 × 8 × 12

A = 4 × 12

A = 48 cm²

Thus, the area of the figure is:

Area of composite figure = Rectangle Area +  Right-triangle Area

                                            = 168 cm² +  48 cm²

                                            = 216 cm²

Therefore,

Area of composite figure = 216 cm²

Hence, option A is correct.

Answer:

x = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 2 secants intersecting the circle from a point outside the circle then

The product of the external part and the entire part of one secant is equal to the product of the external part and the entire part of the other secant, that is

x(x + 14) = 6(6 + 12)

x² + 14x = 6 × 18 = 108 ( subtract 108 from both sides )

x² + 14x - 108 = 0 ← in standard form

with a = 1, b = 14 and c = - 108

Using the quadratic formula to solve for x

x = ( - b ± \sqrt{b^2-4ac} ) / 2a

  = ( - 14 ± \sqrt{14^2-(4(1)(-108)} ) / 2

  = ( - 14 ± \sqrt{196+432} ) / 2

  = ( - 14 ± \sqrt{628} ) / 2

  x = \frac{-14-\sqrt{628} }{2} or x = \frac{-14+\sqrt{628} }{2}

  x = - 19.5 or x = 5.5 ( to 1 dec. place )

However x > 0 ⇒ x = 5.5
