The area of a triangle is one half the area for a rectangle because the triangle is half of a rectangle with equal base and height
First you have your two numbers: 1.5 and 4.
The question explains that they travel 1.5 miles 4 times each, meaning you multiply the two.
1.5×4=6
So, your answer is 6 miles.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
Part 1) 
Part 2) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Part 1) Find the value of x
we know that
Triangles CDF and FDE are similar
therefore
The ratio of its corresponding sides is proportional and its corresponding angles are congruent
so
Part 2) Find the length of DE
substitute the value of x
The first term (a) is - 18
You add 5 to get to the next term. Or you can solve it by taking any 2 consecutive terms and find their difference.
Formula
d = t4- t3
Givens
t4 = - 3
t3 = - 8
Solution 1
d = t4 - t3 Substitute
d = -3 - ( - 8) Remove the brackets
d = -3 + 8 Combine
d = 5 Difference
Remark
Find the general formula
tn = - a + (n - 1)d Substitute
So term 20 = Example
t20 = -18 + (20 - 1)*5 Combine the inside of the brackets. Remove the brackets
t20 = - 18 + 19*5 Combine 19 and 5
t20 = -18 + 95 "Subtract"
t20 = 77 Answer
The given equation is a wave function. When plotted, the graph is shown in the attached picture. However, the unit is in degrees instead of radians. A unit of π is equivalent to 180°. This plot could determine one variable if the other is given.
