Find the area of the kite.

Mathematics

Alchen [17]2 years ago

Answer:

72

Step-by-step explanation:

One way to do this is to use the formula  A=\frac{1}{2}d_1 d_2  where d_1 and d_2 are the lengths of the two diagonals.

In the figure, d_1=12  and  d_2=12  (2 + 10 and 6 + 6).

The area is \frac{1}{2}(12)(12)=\frac{1}{2}144=72 square units.

Another way that doesn't depend on learning a formula is to remember that the diagonals of a kite are perpendicular, so the 4 small triangles are right triangles.  Two of the smaller triangles have base =2 and height = 6, so their areas are 1/2(2)(6) = 6.  Double that--there are 2 congruent small triangles--to get an area of 12.

There are two larger right triangles with base =10 and height = 6, so their area are 1/2(10)(6)=30.  There are two of those, so their combined area is 60.

Finally, put the small triangle area and the large triangle area together to get a total of 12 + 60 = 72

Melissa ran 6 2/5 miles north 2 3/4 west and 2 1/3 south how far did she run
alexgriva [62]

Answer:11.5

Step-by-step explanation:

distance=6 2/5 + 2 3/4 + 2 1/3

d=(5x6+2)/5 + (4x2+3)/4 + (3x2+1)/3

d=32/5 + 11/4 + 7/3

d=(12x32+15x11+20x7) ➗ 60

d=(384+165+140) ➗ 60

d=689 ➗ 60

d=11.5

Which point on the number line is at 58/100
liberstina [14]

Answer:

R

Step-by-step explanation:

if you look at it 0 is the first one then count up by tens Q would 48 because it’s before 50 so 50 is right next to Q so then R is before 60 and after 50 so R is 58/100
