OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

is that 22 ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup.

hero (hero):

area of square + area of triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Yup, I think so. :)

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

Area of square: 21*22 = 462 Area of Triangle: Hm, have you learnt the pythagorus theorem ?

hero (hero):

A square would not have an area of 21*22

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

It's an area of a sqaure right ? idk haven't done those type of questions in a long time

hero (hero):

Yes, but think about it. A square would have all equal sides

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

They are not equal according to the diagram

hero (hero):

So it isn't a square

hero (hero):

Honestly, I think the pic is a little weird. Three sides the same, but the fourth side isn't?

OpenStudy (mimi_x3):

Triangle: 1/2* squareroot(43) * 21 Yeah it's weird, i think Jessica should draw it again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can't u just do 22*22 and just forget about the middle line tht is 21?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ok, I'll draw it again. :)

hero (hero):

Draw slowly

hero (hero):

And accurately

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okie dokie :)
