Hey there!
To find the area, we multiply the length by the width! The carpet will cover the area of the room.
24×15=360
But, the carpeting is sold in square yards, not feet. There are three feet in a yard, which means that one yard is 1/3 feet. Since we have 360 square feet, we will divide it by three to get yards.
360/3=120
Therefore, the office would need 120 square yards of carpeting.
Have a wonderful day!
Answer:
The small triangle has a long leg of 8. The triangle area formula is used to derive this. Now, there can be a ration equation.
10/4 = x/8
x = 20
Now use the formula.
A=1/2bh
A=1/2(10*20)
A=100
Area of DEF is 100 m^2.
