Question

Please help

Describe a method you can use to find the area of the following shape. Provide specific details in your answer, including coordinates and descriptions of shapes used. Then, find the actual area of the figure.

Answer 1

Well you could first start out by finding the area of triangle ABF

Answer 2

Your FINE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 3

How do I do that @jackmullen55

Answer 4

hello ur pretty amazingly cute

Answer 5

Im a lesbian, with a girlfriend. Im just here to work and get some assistance on my work. Not to flirt but thanks.

Answer 6

So you want to do \[ \frac{ b • h }{ 2 }\]

Answer 7

You tell 'em @Lexaaa_ganja

Answer 8

that's good for my bad good luck to u and ur girlfriend

Answer 9

So you want to do \[\frac{ 10 • 3 }{ 2 }\]

Answer 10

How did you get 3 though. i thought it would be like 9

Answer 11

Nevermind i know what your doing lol sorry

Answer 12

so 15 would be the final answer for area?

Answer 13

So would I do the same to the second shape beneath the triangle?

Answer 14

Exactly

Answer 15

Whats the shape beneath it.

Answer 16

So in order to do this lets separate the two as a square and a rectangle by placing a point at (5, -3)

Answer 17

We will call this point G

Answer 18

This now forms two shapes, triangle DEG and and Square BCGE

Answer 19

Im confused now. can you draw a quick graph on what your trying to tell me.

Answer 20

Yea

Answer 21

Hold on downloading GeoGebra

Answer 22

they have a graph drawer on here

Answer 23

Do you understand what I mean now?

Answer 24

okay yes, go on. thank you

Answer 25

So now you need to find the answer to the area of both triangle DEG and and Square BCGE
For DEG we use the same formula as before
For BCGE we use the formula b∙h

Answer 26

In other words,
For DEG we use \[\frac{ 6 • 1 }{ 2 }\]
For BCGE we use \[6 • 6\]

Answer 27

@Lexaaa_ganja

Answer 28

Starting with the top triangle, finding the area. I multiplied 10 with 3, and divided with 2 and got 15 for my area of the triangle.
Dis is what I have, and Im so tired of doing geometry because my head is still in the gutter I dont know anything could you give me the answers, and Ill open like 5 chats just to give you a bunch of medals lol

Answer 29

Haha ok. So it's 3 + 36 + 15 = 54

Answer 30

The answer is 54

Answer 31

How would I write that how the question wants me too D;

Answer 32

Say:
In order to find the area of the shape, you should create two triangles and one square. Use the formulas for area to find the area of each shape and then add it all together to get your end number.

If you can I would add the graph that I created so that the teacher can see what you mean by dividing up the shapes.

Answer 33

Answer 34

Did you get the answer you need?
