The answer is -6/7 after working it out.
You set up the problem correctly, just keep going.
Expand out your expression:
2x(3x-9) + 4x(x+13)
= 6x^2 -18x + 4x^2 + 52x
= 10x^2 +34x
Remember that the above expression is the area, so it is equal to 24.
10x^2 + 34x = 24
10x^2 + 34x - 24 = 0 (divide by 2)
5x^2 + 17x - 12 = 0
Done.
X= 60
The triangle it is in is equilateral (as shown by the lines through the lines) and equilateral triangles have angles of 60.
Hope this helps :)
Find the area of the larger rectangle.
5 x 4 = 20
One of the triangles is 2 x 2. Area of 2. Subtract 2 from 20.
20 - 2 = 18
Another is 2 x 5. Area of 5. Subtract 5 from 18.
18 - 5 = 13
The last is 3 x 4. Area of 6. Subtract 6 from 13.
13 - 6 = 7
The area of the triangle QRS is A, 7.
Hope this helps!
