Mathematics

from the diagram, we can see that the height or line perpendicular to the parallel sides is 8.5.

likewise we can see that the parallel sides or "bases" are 24.3 and 9.7, so

\textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} h=height\\ a,b=\stackrel{parallel~sides}{bases}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ h=8.5\\ a=24.3\\ b=9.7 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} A=\cfrac{8.5(24.3+9.7)}{2}\\\\ A=\cfrac{8.5(34)}{2}\implies A=144.5~in^2 \end{array}

CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ANSWER THIS SOON! THANK YOU!

We want to find one-half of the reciprocal of 7/sqrt(98). Let's write down an expression for this:

\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{98}}{7}

We can rewrite 98 into 2 \times 49

\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{2 \times 49}}{7}

=\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{49}}{7}

The square root of 49 is 7

=\dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{\sqrt{2} \times 7}{7}

=\dfrac{1}{2} \times\sqrt{2}

=\dfrac{\sqrt{2}}{2}

This should be your answer. Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
