Answer:
16 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
→ Find the area of the whole triangle
0.5 × ( 5 + 4 ) × 8 = 36
→ Find the area of the small triangle
0.5 × 5 × 8 = 20
→ Minus the area's of the triangles
36 - 20 = 16 square units
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
The rhombus when split into two triangles will give us two equilateral triangles that are congruent to each other.
Therefore:
The two bases of both triangles will have equal angle measures of 4x + 5 each and a third angle measure of 8x - 6.
✅Formula to find the value of x:
(8x - 6) + 2(4x + 5) = 180° (sum of triangle)
8x - 6 + 8x + 10 = 180
8x + 8x - 6 + 10 = 180
16x + 4 = 180
16x + 4 - 4 = 180 - 4
16x = 176
16x/16 = 176/16
x = 11
5(2x+3y) is the most it can be factored. You first have to find the greatest common factor and once thats done just try using methods such as the diamond. The only thing it was able to do using the methods was this.
