The area of a trapezoid is
where B and b are the two bases, and h is the height. The two bases have to be parallel, and the height must be perpendicular to both bases.
Even though we are used to have horizontal bases and vertical height, it's not mandatory, since a simple rotation doesn't affect the dimensions or the area of the trapezoid.
So, in this case, the two vertical segments are actually the bases of the trapezoid, and the horizontal segment is the height. So, the formula for the area yields
325,000 is 324,650 rounded to the nearest thousand
If you cut a triangle out of a piece of paper, and move that triangle around (sliding, rotating, reflecting) then that triangle will retain its original shape and size. The three movement types mentioned are rigid motions. They do not change the size or shape of the triangle. If two triangles are congruent, then a sequence of one or more rigid motions can be applied to have them line up together.
Answer:
22 2/9
Step-by-step explanation:
When z "varies jointly" with x and y, it can be described by the formula
z = kxy
Here, we have bags of mulch (n) varying jointly with area (a) and depth (d), both in feet. The given information can let us find the value of k.
n = kad
10 = k·(120)(1/4)
10/30 = k = 1/3 . . . . . divide by the coefficient of k
Now, we can fill in the other values of interest.
n = (1/3)·(200)·(1/3) = 200/9
n = 22 2/9
You need 22 2/9 bags of mulch to cover 200 ft² to a depth of 4 inches.

<em>Comment on the problem</em>
This problem requires the formula be written with both area and depth expressed in feet, yet it gives depth in inches. The formula can also be written using depth in inches. In that case, k = 1/36.
1. Answer = About 1451.42 m³
- First, we need to find the volume of the cube:
- Formula: πr²h
- Volume = π * 3² * 50 = 1413.72 m³
- Second, we need to find the volume of the cone:
- Formula: (πr²h)/3
- Volume = π * 3² * 4 = 37.69 m³
- Third, we need to add these two volumes to find the total volume of the figure.
- 1413.72 m³ + 37.69 m³ = 1451.42 m³.
2. Answer <em>= </em>960 m³
- Formula: (1/2(b*l)) * 20
- First, we need to find the area of the base (1/2 * b* l).
- 1/2 * 8 * 12 = 48.
- Second, we need to multiply the area of the base by the height to get the volume.
- B * h = 48 * 20 = 960 m³.
