Answer 27

there are 5 faces. the triangle face closest to us is a right triangle.
can you find its area using 1/2 base * height ?

Answer 28

is the base byd and the hieght 10yd?

Answer 29

you want the bottom line that goes sides and the line that goes straight up (not the hypotenuse)

Answer 30

*sideways

Answer 31

so, 8yd and 10yd?

Answer 32

8 goes straight up. which line goes sideways?

Answer 33

you want the "legs" that form the right angle (see the little square in the corner?)

Answer 34

9?

Answer 35

yes i see it

Answer 36

what are the lengths of those two legs?

Answer 37

9 and 8?

Answer 38

the marked legs are the base and the height of the right triangle

Answer 39

6= base hieght = 8

Answer 40

now can you find its area ?

Answer 41

6 x 8 x 2 = 96 / 2 = 48

Answer 42

why did you put in the extra 2 ?

Answer 43

cuz sometimes when people like teach me they put in the 2 and then im like well i should do that for everything now.

Answer 44

Let's go slow and find the area of just the one face, the triangle with base 6 and height 8
the formula is 1/2 * base * height
what do you get ?

Answer 45

48

Answer 46

base * height is 6*8 = 48
but now multiply by 1/2

Answer 47

96

Answer 48

48 times 1/2 means 48/2 (it is not 96)

Answer 49

oh, then 24

Answer 50

yes. next the "back triangle" is the same area, it is also 24
so the front and back add up to 24+24= 48

now we have to find the area of the 3 rectangle shaped faces.

Answer 51

k do we do 48 x 3?

Answer 52

guess not

Answer 53

I see a 9 x 10

Answer 54

90

Answer 55

ok remember 90
now what is the length of the red line in the figure?

Answer 56

yes

Answer 57

you are looking at a rectangle and the opposite sides of a rectangle are equal
what is the length of the red line in the figure?

Answer 58

6 but then im thinking it might be 8
