So, why is the base not included in the equation? 24 * 4 sides but it doesn't include the base.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not certain I understand your question.

Let's start at the beginning. What you are supposed to do is find the area of the 4 triangles.

QRP is one of the tringles.  It has a height of RS which is 6 cm. The base of the triangle comes from the square on the bottom of the diagram (and yes it is an optical illusion).

The square has a side length of 8 cm.

Area QRP = 1/2 * base * height

base = 8 cm

height = 6 cm

Area QRP = 1/2 * 8 *6 = 24   Oh that's where you got 24 * 4

There are 4 triangles that are the same as QRP so the answer is 24*4

The base of the triangle is included. It is just a bit disguised. It comes from the 24. Excellent question.

in the bag, there are certain number of toy- blocks with alphabets A,B,C and D written on them. The ratio of blocks A:B:C:D is 4
Svet_ta [14]
Given, the ratio of blocks A, B, C,D are in the ratio 4:7:3:1

Let us consider the common ratio to be ‘x’.

So, toy blocks with alphabet A is 4x and

toy blocks with alphabet B is 7x and

toy blocks with alphabet C is 3x and

toy blocks with alphabet D is x


Again, the number of ‘A’ blocks is 50 more than the number of ‘C’ blocks.

As no. of ‘A’ and ‘C’ blocks are 4x and 3x respectively.

So,

4x=50 + 3x

x=50

Thus, the number of ‘B’ blocks is 7x = 7(50) = 350

350 is the required number.
