Answer:
133.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of paralleogram is base x height. The base is 15 as given. We need to find the height.
Using triangle MNJ we can find it.
We need to find side MN but we are given an angle adjacent to that side 90. We also given another angle and a side adjacent to that angle 52 and 7 respectively.
We can use law of sines to find MN
sin of 90 =1 so multiply 1 by both sides
simplify that and we get mn=8.9.
So know we can multiply 8.9 by 1t to find the area.
15×8.9=
133.5

You can divide a triangle using medians. Let's name triangle ΔABC shown in figure 1. So you must start at one of the vertices and then bisect the opposite side. Let's start with the point A and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from B to D is equal to the length from D to C. So let's take the point B and then we bisect the opposite side. Then the length from A to E is equal to the length from E to C. The same reasoning happens with the point C. So we have, in figure 2, the triangle ΔABC divided into six triangles which all have the same area.
