The area of a rectangle is 20 meters. How long is the length if the width is 4 meters? 5 16 24 80 A parallelogram is a 4-sided shape formed by one pair of parallel lines. True or False The area of a triangle is 75 square feet. If the height is 5 feet longer than the base, find the dimension of the height. 10 15 20 25
AREA of a rectangle = A = L*W 20 = L*W 20 = L*4 solve for L
=5
then that is your answer
do you know what a parallelogram looks like?
no do u mind showing me?
use a search engine online
ok
the side of the heights are parallel and the side of the base and top are also parallel |dw:1420014176346:dw|
so it is true
you tell me I basically gave you everything you know
let us move on to triangles Area of triangle = \(A_T = \frac{1}{2} (base \times height) \) it says that the height is 5 ft longer than the base this gives us Height = Base + 5 let us try to create our equation \(A_T = 75 = \frac{1}{2} [base \times (base + 5)] \) notice that it seems we are not solving directly for the height, but determining what base is first before we can determine what height i
I'd like for you to solve for the base
ok one second
the base =15
show me your solution please
assuming that base is 15 we determined based on the question that, \(\sf Height = Base + 5 \rightarrow Height = 15 + 5 \)
aren't these problems easy like doodling?
yes its just i get confused at some points
do not forget your units ft, meters, etc
so the final answerr of this equation is 25
keep working on things that confuse you so you can shrug it off like a cobweb
errrr H = 15 + 5 = 25?
yup
I am about to take the medal I gave you back
lol opps 20
FOCUS!
its like 3 in the morning my brain isnt working xD
then go to sleep and work on the problems when your brain IS working
lol will do
ty for ur help
The answer for the last equation was 15 not 20...
