What is the area of
strapezoid ABCD
3
A(-3,2)
9514 1404 393
37.5 square units
Step-by-step explanation:
When the points are plotted on a graph, you can see that the sides of the trapezoid are the hypotenuse of a 3-4-5 right triangle (or multiple thereof). The grid lines make up the legs of the triangle, and the edge of the figure makes up the hypotenuse. Side BC is clearly twice as long as side AD.
The area formula for a trapezoid applies:
A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h
A = 1/2(5 +10)(5) = 1/2(75) = 37.5 . . . . square units area
they can both be solutions depends on the equation
step-by-step explanation:
what is the equation? ?
the simplified form is
step-by-step explanation:
we want to simplify the expression,
let us change the middle bar to a normal division sign to obtain,
we multiply the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction to obtain,
we factor to obtain,
we cancel the common factors to get,
we simplify to get,
the correct answer is b
