Question

What is the area of ΔWXY? Round your answer to the nearest whole number.______ mi2

Answer 1

Hint:
You know LOOK AT SMALLER TRIANGLE (Formed on the right)
see you have 2 sides, leg 4.62 and hypotenuse 5.
can you find a little leg on the bottom?

Answer 2

Formula \[c^2-b^2=a^2\]

Answer 3

\[5^2-4.62^2=a^2\]\[a≈1.91\]
So \[WX= 13+1.91=14.91\]

Answer 4

Base times height divided by 2 = area of the triangle.

Answer 5

\[(14.91 \times 4.62) \div 2\]\[Area=34.44\]
