The formula for the area of a trapezoid is 1/2 (b1 + b2) h
So, take your b1 and b2, 12 and 6, and add them together. You get 18.
Divide this by 2, and you get 9.
Now, multiply 9 by your height, which is 4.
9 x 4 = 36.
The area of the trapezoid is 36 square inches.
Answer:D. 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The y coordinates would become the opposite/ H': (5,0) I': (-6,3)
Answer:
the greatest possible length of each square plot is 1 ft.
1,269 square plots
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the plots are going to be squares then the width and length need to be the same. This means that the largest size of these plots would be calculated as the largest common divisor of the length and width of the garden. In this scenario, since 47 only has two divisors 1 and 47, and 27 is not divisible by 47 then the GCD of these two numbers would be 1. Meaning that the greatest possible length of each square plot is 1 ft.
To calculate the total number of plots needed we divide the square footage of the garden by the square footage of each individual plot like so...
47 * 27 = 1,269 sq. ft.
1 * 1 = 1 sq. ft.
1,269 / 1 = 1,269 plots
Finally, we see that we need a total of 1,269 square plots to cover that same area of the garden.
