mhmm your answer isn't correct

AZ:

To find the area of the figure, we have to find the area of each shape in the image We have a rectangle and two different triangles

AZ:

So let's first find the area of a rectangle we have the formula area = length * width the width is 10 and the height is 7 what is the area?

TETSXPREME:

i dont know o;

AZ:

what is 10*7 =

AZ:

I accidentally said height but I meant length* oops haha I can see why you'd be confused now, my bad

AZ:

once you find the area of the rectangle, we have to find the area of the two triangles area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

TETSXPREME:

i dont get it no matter what XD sorry

AZ:

what is 10 times 7

TETSXPREME:

70

AZ:

that's the area of the rectangle the question wants us to find the area of the ENTIRE figure so that means we need to find the area of the other two shapes

AZ:

we have two triangles let's do the area of the triangle on the LEFT area = 1/2 * base * height the base is 6 and the height is 7 so what is 1/2 * 6 * 7 =

TETSXPREME:

idk

TETSXPREME:

make it easier please XD

AZ:

what is 0.5 TIMES 6 TIMES 7

AZ:

I can't make using a calculator any easier

AZ:

Finding area is already the basics of geometry

AZ:

Since you went offline, I'll just finish up the other triangle as well Area = 1/2 * base * height the base is 7 and the height is 5 area is going to be 1/2 * 5 * 7 and to find your final answer, just add the three areas we calculated

TETSXPREME:

21

AZ:

now what about 1/2 * 5 * 7

TETSXPREME:

i- what that means

AZ:

the * basically means multiplication we use * instead of x because you know how we sometimes use letters? So to not get confused we use *

TETSXPREME:

simplfy ?

AZ:

1/2 is the same thing as 0.5 so what is 0.5 multiplied by 5 multiplied by 7 you can use a calculator to find it, you can also google it and it'll calculate it for you https://www.google.com/search?q=1%2F2+*+5+*+7

AZ:

and then finally, just add all the numbers we got 70 + 21 and then whatever you get for what I said above

TETSXPREME:

91?

AZ:

yes and we have to do 91 + one more number let's calculate that number what is 0.5 multiplied by 5 multiplied by 7? or you could click that link I sent earlier and it'll calculate it for you (:

TETSXPREME:

i dont know how to do that tho

AZ:

use a calculator mate

AZ:

one over 2 OR one half OR 1/2 OR 0.5

AZ:

what is 0.5 times 5 and then multiply that by 7

TETSXPREME:

17.5 ?

AZ:

there you go now add that to 91 so 91 + 17.5 =

TETSXPREME:

you cant do that o;

AZ:

why not?

AZ:

do you know how to use a calculator

TETSXPREME:

i do but you just rigged math

AZ:

h o w

TETSXPREME:

congratz on level 70 C:

TETSXPREME:

108.5

AZ:

okay, do you want to understand your question from the beginning

AZ:

yeah that's the answer

TETSXPREME:
