Answer:
Parallel cut-rectangle
Perpendicular cut-triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
A rectangular pyramid has a base that is a rectangle, but comes up into a point.
First, you must find the width of GHJK. Since the area of it is 84m², divide 84 by 7.
84÷7=12
So the width of GHJK is 12m.
Next, find the scale of GHJK to LMNP. Since the height of both are already available, you can divide 21÷7 to get 3
This means that to get the width of LMNP you must multiply the width of GHJK by 3.
12×3=36.
Now, to get the area of LMNP, multiply 21 by 36.
21×36=756
So, the area of LMNP is 756m². (Don't forget the units!>
