The height of the triangle is 60cm, or 20cm+ 40cm.

The equation for area of a triangle is A=1/2bh

Your base is 30 cm height is 20cm.

A=1/2(30)(20)
A=1/2(600)
A=300cm^2

Your answer is 300cm^2

Answer:

$height = (20 + 40) cm\\ = 60cm \\ area = \frac{1}{2} \times b \times h \\ = \frac{1}{2 } \times30 \times 60 \\ = \frac{1800}{2} \\ area= 900 {cm}^{2}$

Find the area of each regular polygon. Round your answer to the nearest tenth if necessary.

*I am assuming that the hexagons in all questions are regular and the triangle in (24) is equilateral*

(21)

Area of a Regular Hexagon: $\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}(side)^{2} = \frac{3\sqrt{3}}{2}*(\frac{20\sqrt{3} }{3} )^{2} =200\sqrt{3}$ square units

(22)

Similar to (21)

Area = $216\sqrt{3}$ square units

(23)

For this case, we will have to consider the relation between the side and inradius of the hexagon. Since, a hexagon is basically a combination of six equilateral triangles, the inradius of the hexagon is basically the altitude of one of the six equilateral triangles. The relation between altitude of an equilateral triangle and its side is given by:

$altitude=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}*side$
