Geometry (drawing)
A) 3600 sq ft. B) 4600 sq ft C) 6400 sq ft D) 8900 sqf ft
so than you see it right inside this frame sou see a rectangle for what you can calculi area sure easy and than you see the greater frame so this is a trapezoid with base (0,120) and (0,0) yes ?
ok, but how do you get the measurements of the bases and the height?
so the length of the base will be 120 - do you see it why ,
which base, remember the bases are the thīngs art the left and right, the short ones
the length of the top vertical line will be from the 20 till 100 so will be 80 units
the base of trapezoid will be this line with coordinates (0,0) till (0,120) but see this trapezoid inclined 90 degree on right part - do you see it now ?
yes,ok
so for you get the necessary area you need subtract area of the rectangle what is inside greater frame from area of trapezoid - right ?
what is inside trapezoid what i have wrote greater frame - sorry
yes, but i wanted to get the are of the trapezoid first
do you know formula for area of a trapezoid ?
A=1/2 h (b1+b2)
ok b1 being the greater base so b1 = 120 yes ?
b2 = ?
yes
b2=80
yes
and what is the height?
this i wan explain to you how you can see it i will try to explain it look please the base has x value equal zero - yes ? the left side ,down corner of the rectangle what is inside trapezoid has x value 10 so what will be the distance between the base of trapezoid and the left side of rectangle ?
10
exactly
so than you see the left side of rectangle has x value 10 and the line from the top has x value 140 so what will be the difference between ?
130?
eaxctly
so the height how many will be ?
130
why just 130 ? and with this 10 what will be ?
140
yes sure 140 - ok. ?
yes, so now i get the trapezoid area
how many will be ?
ok. and now you like to calculi area of rectangle - yes ,
14000
how you have got it ?
I got it, it's 3600 sq ft
yes 3600 here is another approach
ok so than you need getting area of the plot of land
