Ok so you have to break this up, what is the area of the triangle?

OpenStudy (briannabug):

Could you do it In the equation like you did before because that helped me A LOT!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Well there is no definite equation here but the concept is the same You have to break it into parts So you have|dw:1455389197828:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The second triangle is the same as the first So the values are the same Also this is a rectangle, therefore the other side is also 10|dw:1455389285645:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So the diagram splits it into parts which you should do so|dw:1455389330083:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you have to imagine this in your mind and how the rectangles would wrap AROUND the triangle, if you use that logic then the sides would equal |dw:1455389406768:dw|

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Let's take each individual one to calculate area |dw:1455389444117:dw|
