Help I'm taking a k12 quiz 2.04: composite figures but, I can't figure these out can anyone help me?Question. 1 What is the area of this polygon? (Picture 1)Question. 2 What is the area of this polygon? 42.5 Units? 41.5 Units? 35.5 Units? 29.5 Units? (Picture 2)Question. 3 This figure is made up of a rectangle and parallelogram.What is the area of this figure? (Picture 3)Question. 4 What is the area of this composite shape? (Picture 4)Thank you angels who help me with these
Question
Answer:
All of these can be solved by separating complex figur into simpler one.Needed formulas are:
Area of rectangle A=a*b
Area of triangle A=a*h/2
Area of paralelogram A= a*h
QUESTION 1.
When we connect points F and S we get a rectangle and a triangle.
Dimensions of sides of a rectangle are a=9 and b=2.
A=9*2=18 [tex]units^{2} [/tex]
For a triangle we need to take one side and it's height. Let's take side FS because it's easiest to find the height.
a=9
h=6
A=9*6/2=27[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Tot+al area of a figure:
A=18+27=45[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
QUESTION 2.
We connect point (1,1) with (1,-2) and (-6,1). This way we get a rectangle and three triangles.
Rectangle:
a=3
b=4
A=3*4=12[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Top right triangle:
a=4
h=3
A=4*3/2=6[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Top left triangle:
a=7
h=2
A=7*2/2=7[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Bottom left triangle:
a=7
h=3
A=7*3/2=10.5[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Total area of a figure:
A=12+6+7+10.5=35.5[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
QUESTION 3.
We connect points (-4,2) and (-1,3). This way we get a paralelogram and a rectangle.
Paralelogram:
a=6
h=1
A=6*1=6[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Rectangle:
a=distance between (-4,2) and (-1,3) = [tex] \sqrt{ (-1-(-4))^{2} + (3-2)^{2} } = \sqrt{10} [/tex]
b = distance between (-4,2) and (-2,-4) = [tex] \sqrt{ (-2-(-4))^{2} + (-2-2)^{2} } = \sqrt{20} [/tex]
A=a*b=[tex] \sqrt{10} * \sqrt{20} = \sqrt{200} =10 \sqrt{2} [/tex][tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Paralelogram:
a=6
h=1
A=6*1=6[tex]units^{2} [/tex]
Total area of a figure:
A=[tex]10 \sqrt{2} [/tex] + 6 [tex]units^{2} [/tex]
QUESTION 4.
We coonect missing side of a triangle. That side has a length of: 6in-3in=3in. Vertical side of triangle is: 13in-7in=6in
Area:
a=3
h=6
A=3*6/2=9[tex] in^{2} [/tex]
Rectangle:
a=7in
b=6in
A=7*6=42[tex] in^{2} [/tex]
Total area of a figure:
A=9+42=51[tex] in^{2} [/tex]
