What is the area of the pentagon shown below a.27 square feet b. 58.5 c.85.5 d.117
1 answer:
Answer:
Option B, Area of pentagon = 58.5 Square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The remaining part of the question is attached as image
Solution
Area of pentagon has a triangle and a trapezoid
Area of triangle = 0.5 *base *height = 0.5*9 *3 = 13.5 square feet
Area of trapezoid = Area of rectangle – 2* area of smaller triangles
= 9 ft * 6ft – ( 2 * 0.5 * 6 ft * (9 ft – 6ft) /2
= 54 – (1*6*1.5)
Area of pentagon = 13.5 + 45 = 58.5 Square feet
Hence, option B is correct

Answer:
The first option (5.7km)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have a right angle triangle and we know two of its sides we can easily find out the thirds side (the value of d) by using the Pathagoras Theorem. In our case 7 and d are our legs and the hypotenuse is equal to 9, so...
(Based on the Pathagoras Theorem)
d ≈ 5.7km
There for aproximate distance across the lake is equal to 5.7km
