Answer:
24.885 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the formula for the area of a triangle.
A = 1/2bh . . . . . . . where b is the base length and h is the height perpendicular to the base
A = 1/2(7.9 in)(6.3 in) = 24.885 in²
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The given side lengths cannot form a triangle, as the side shown as 14.7 is too long for the ends of the other segments to connect to. The attachment shows that side should be 11.97 in.
Answer:
See description below.
Step-by-step explanation:
To choose the correct equation, find the slope of the line on the graph. Identify two points on the line. Then subtract to find their rate of change using the slope formula.
When you know the slope, find the negative reciprocal. For example, if the slope is 2/1 then the negative reciprocal is -1/2. This is the slope of a perpendicular line to a line with slope 2. Choose the equation which has this same slope.
Example:
y = 2x -1
y= -1/2 +5
