Answer 1

@Will.H

Answer 2

There's a glitch M supposed to be
(3x, 2y) yet they already submitted the x value as 4x. Not that it matters but yeah.

Answer 3

The length of the base in triangle KMN is NM we can find the length using distance formula.
N(3x,0) M(3x, 2y)
Using distance formula
NM= SQRT(4Y^2)
NM= 2Y

Answer 4

The height can be found as we mentioned before. 1st find the midpoint of the base then you'll manage to connect the vertex by that point to eventually have the height.

Midpoint of Nm = (3x, y)
Thus height is = (0,0)(3x,y) Find the length of that
Height = sqrt(9x^2 + y^2)
Height = 3x+y
Not sure if your allowed to have these values it's always confusing when it comes to variables

Answer 5

Did you ask me to solve it? lol

√(2y-0)^2+(3x-3x)^2= √2^2+√3^2=√4+9=2+3=5

Answer 6

Lol I don't even know what you wrote above but no

Answer 7

Anyways the height is 3x

Answer 8

I just randomly solved it I didnt know if you wanted me to solve or not I know it was wrong but like i was just like uuuhhhh lmao

Answer 9

Okay

Answer 10

what is the base?

Answer 11

So the area of KMN = 0.5 * 2y * 3x
That's the expression

Answer 12

We already did the base. It is 2y

Answer 13

okay 2y and 3x gotcha

Answer 14

They are dealing with variables not numbers, constants

Answer 15

And the expression is above in case you've missed it tho. So now we are done with triangle KMN. Make sense so far?

Answer 16

Yes

Answer 17

KMN = 0.5 * 2y * 3x Do I solve this to get 3 or no?

Answer 18

Wait I'd dispute here. In the expression we were told to find. Were you able to write it down entirely or were u asked to simplify.

Answer 19

You can't solve anything tho

Answer 20

We're dealing with variables meaning that the expression we're getting are already the answer

Answer 21

oh okay

Answer 22

Alright so the expression of the area of triangle KMN is 0.5 * 2y *3x. However I doubt that you'd be able to write it down that way so instead we can have it like
B*h)/2
Thus
(2y * 3x)/2
That can be simplified into
Y*3x/2
So you pick which one you can write down

Answer 23

okay thank you

Answer 24

Moving on to triangle Klm

The expression would be
Area =( b* h)/2
Area = 3x* 2y)/2
Area = 3x/2 *y

Notice that it is the same exact area of triangle KMN
So that means our work is entirely correct and we just proved that

Answer 25

You're welcome. Let me know if you have other questions
