Find the area of the image below: 2 6.2 3 2.8

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Image please :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@xGuardians here you go! :)

OpenStudy (xguardians):

I still don't see it :o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Sorry bout that!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

It's a line, there is no area?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nothing at all, just tells me to find area and i am confused on how to. And also, the answer choices are wrong. Hold on one moment please.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@xGuardians Just fixed the answer choices. :)

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Is part of the image cut off? There is no polygon, or shape, you can't find the area of a line, its impossible.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OMG so sorry, I didn't correctly write the question! Using the image below, find the y value for the point that divides the line segment CD into a ratio of 4:1.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I apologize! @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Well the slope of this line is 5/4, not really sure what the question is asking?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

It's just asking the ratio, and I have no idea how to solve! @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Maybe this can help you: http://www.teacherschoice.com.au/Maths_Library/Analytical%20Geometry/AnalGeom_3.htm

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay thank you! @xGuardians

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Can you help with another? @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Goodluck, haven't experienced line ratios. What math class are you in?

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Geometry?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes! :) @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Ah, I took that class last year, never had that occur -- Whats your other question?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Find the perimeter of the image below: 25.8 units 26.1units 27.5 units 28.6 units

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh yeah, I took geometry in class last year but taking it online! it's easier online, but weirder stuff! lol @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

That problem will take quite a while. Here is a guide to help you out! http://www.mathopenref.com/coorddist.html

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Then just add them all up, and there is your perimeter :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it just using the distance formula and then adding all of the numbers up?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okay thanks!! @xGuardians

OpenStudy (xguardians):

Do the distance formula for each line segment to find its length, then add them all up. You can use the simulator in the website to find them all if your too lazy :D

OpenStudy (anonymous):

haha, sounds good! Thank you! i'll be sure to look upto you for help in the future! :)
