<h3>Answer: D) 198 square meters</h3>

======================================================

Explanation:

Extend the side that's 9.5 meters long out to the left so that you form a trapezoid on top and a rectangle underneath. The side we extended is now 5+9.5 = 14.5 meters long.

Let

A = area of the trapezoid up top
B = area of the rectangle underneath

The goal is to find A+B

The trapezoid has the parallel sides of 14.5 and 10 meters. The height of the trapezoid is 28-20 = 8 meters. So we can say

Area of trapezoid = height*(base1+base2)/2

A = h*(b1+b2)/2

A = 8*(14.5+10)/2

A = 98

The rectangle has area of B = length*width = 5*20 = 100 square meters

Therefore,

total area = A+B = 98+100 = 198 square meters.

A kite has a height of 36 inches and a width of 30 inches. Explain how to use the area formula for a triangle to find the area o

mote1985 [20]

Height of the kite is = 36 inches.

Width of the kite is = 30 inches

One of the ways to find the area is to draw a vertical line to break the kite into two equal triangles. Mark the base as 36 inches and height as 15 inches .

Now we will use the formula $area=\frac{1}{2}*base*height$ to find the area of each triangle. Then we will add both the areas to find the area of the kite.
