I need a formula or something to help me solve this. Or can you help me find the answer? that'd be great. https://postimg.org/image/wqsxtnq5t/
SA means Surface area?
yes it does
Not so sure about this one but the regular trapezoid surface area is 1/2 ( a + b) * h Am sure you can't find this useful here
@Mathmale will help when available He's too professional
@krissavannah Can yah help?
i cant my school web wont let me
do you know of another website to see it?
umm my gmail pm me
okay
and ill give it to u
alrighty
i gave it to
You have to find the area of each side. There are 6 sides, so we need 6 numbers They tell us the front side (and so also the back side) is a trapezoid with bases 4 and 6, and height 3 |dw:1475860404712:dw|
do you know how to find the area of a trapezoid ?
is the area 15? I know the formula is B1+B2)H/2
yes, 15. And the back is also 15 so we have 4 more sides to do.
and the rest are rectangles right? so you use B*H
yes
Okay one side is 14.4,one is 21, one is 12, and the back is 25.2
ok on the 25.2 and 21 I don't get 14.4 or 12
because it says 3.6 instead of 3
I think 3.6*7 is one side. that gives 25.2 (which is what you got) I can see 3*4 =12 but that is a trapezoid figure , not a rectangle, so it's really 15
what do you get for the "bottom" and the "top" ?
15?
I am calling the "top" the side with the red 7 as one of its sides.
that would be 42
yes. and the side "opposite" (the "bottom" ) is ?
