Question below!!!

OpenStudy (briannabug):

OpenStudy (freckles):

there are 4 triangles and 1 square you find the area of each of these and add to find the surface area

OpenStudy (freckles):

for square you just do base^2 or if you want to call it length^2 you can

OpenStudy (freckles):

is let's look at the square on bottom what is the length of one of its sides?

OpenStudy (briannabug):

5?

OpenStudy (freckles):

are you looking the square on the bottom? or are you looking at the height of one of the triangles?

OpenStudy (freckles):

we are finding the are of this square they have there

OpenStudy (briannabug):

Okay

OpenStudy (freckles):

so what is the area of the square

OpenStudy (briannabug):

10

OpenStudy (freckles):

so when you did 2.5 times 2.5 you got 10?

OpenStudy (freckles):

the area of any square is length^2

OpenStudy (hwyl):

:)

OpenStudy (freckles):

2.5 times 2.5 isn't 10

OpenStudy (briannabug):

I know that I did 2.5 times 4 because there is 4 sides :)

OpenStudy (hwyl):

\(2.5 \times 2.5 = (2.5)^{2} \neq 10 \)

OpenStudy (freckles):

that is finding the perimeter of the square we want the area

OpenStudy (hwyl):

AREA IS THE GEOMETRICAL VALUE OF A "SQUARED" OR AN EXPONENT OF 2

OpenStudy (freckles):

anyways once we find the area of the square we need to find the area of one the triangles and multiply that result by 4 since we have 4 of those triangles
