Mathematics review. i am studying for a really big test................. please help me. medal and fan

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is your question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its ok the area of a rectangle is length X width so that would be 15.75 inches squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait wait wait. ok i was confused at first. dont i do \[2.5*6.3?\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

exactly

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok... lol

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just remember the equation and write out what information you have and what you need to find and plug it in.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

can you help me on a couple other review questions?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok 1 sec

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What math class are you studying for?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

online schol. i took a test several times / 3 times so my teacher had o add 1 more. i am studying so i dont get it wrong

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the area of a parallelogram is baseXheight so in this problem your base is 2cm and the height is 2.9cm when you multiple them you get 5.8 cm squared.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

just remember that a parallelograms area is the same as a triangles area

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok ok i get it......

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

remembering the equations is the hardest part and not over thinking the problems...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes ok.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the area of a triangle is 1/2(base)(height) in this problem the base and height multiple to 32 and when you divide that in half you get an area of 16 cm squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thx

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Area of the whole figure - the area of the inscribed figure

OpenStudy (anonymous):

26.8 yards squared

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i mean so 1.6*2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

and ok @slyoungdale

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

The area of the whole is 30 then you subtract this by 3.2 (1.6*2). What do you get?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

first find the area of the unshaded portion and then subtract that area from the area of the larger section.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

26.8

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

:) thx. and thx too slyoung

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

your welcome good luck on your test!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

wait 1 sec i think i know this 1

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Divide the composite figure into smaller figures (figures in which you know how to find the area of ). Add all the area together to get the final area.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

128?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh srry i had my mouse on this type box. i am not really typing

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Don't worry. Happens to me often.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i cant quite find this out i need help to find the height of this question. The area of a triangle is 56.4 square inches and the base is 12 inches. What is the height of this triangle?

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Since we know that the area of the triangles formula is 1/2(b*h), we already know that the area is 56.4. But this number is half of another number. To get this you want to multiply 56.4 by 2 and then divide by 12 because 12 times another number equals to 56.4*2.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

112.8

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

Give me a sec

OpenStudy (calculusxy):

112.8 is when you multiply by 56.4. You didn't divide by 12.
