An Isosceles Trapezoid Has Base Lengths Of 12 In And 18 In. If The Area Of The Larger Shaded Triangle

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

32 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

length ratio = [tex]\frac{12}{18}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

area ratio = ([tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] )² = [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

smaller area = 72 × [tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex] = 8 × 4 = 32 in²

Answer 2

The area of the smaller shaded triangle is approximately 31.98 square inches.

The area of a triangle is given by the formula: A = 1/2 * base * height. In an isosceles trapezoid, the two parallel sides are equal in length. In this case, the base lengths of the trapezoid are 12 inches and 18 inches.

To find the area of the larger shaded triangle, we need to determine its base and height.

The base of the larger shaded triangle is the same as the length of the larger base of the trapezoid, which is 18 inches.

Let's denote the height of the larger shaded triangle as h1. Using the formula for the area of a triangle, we have: 72 = 1/2 * 18 * h1 To solve for h1, we can multiply both sides of the equation by 2 and divide by 18: 2 * 72 = h1 h1 = 144 / 18 h1 = 8 inches

So, the height of the larger shaded triangle is 8 inches. Now, let's find the area of the smaller shaded triangle. The base of the smaller shaded triangle is the same as the length of the smaller base of the trapezoid, which is 12 inches. Let's denote the height of the smaller shaded triangle as h2. Using the formula for the area of a triangle, we have: A = 1/2 * base * height A = 1/2 * 12 * h2

We don't know the value of h2, but we do know that the two shaded triangles are similar because they have equal angles. This means that the ratio of the heights of the two triangles is the same as the ratio of their bases. The ratio of the bases of the two triangles is 18/12 = 3/2.

So, the ratio of the heights of the two triangles is also 3/2.

To find the height of the smaller shaded triangle, we can set up a proportion: h2 / 8 = 2/3 Cross-multiplying, we have: 3 * h2 = 8 * 2 3 * h2 = 16 h2 = 16 / 3 h2 = 5.33 (rounded to two decimal places)

So, the height of the smaller shaded triangle is approximately 5.33 inches.

Now, we can find the area of the smaller shaded triangle using the formula: A = 1/2 * base * height A = 1/2 * 12 * 5.33 A = 31.98 square inches (rounded to two decimal places)

Therefore, the area of the smaller shaded triangle is approximately 31.98 square inches.

Answers

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. (-6, 3) is not the solution to the system of inequalities.

What are inequalities?

Inequalities help us to compare two unequal expressions. Also, it helps us to compare the non-equal expressions so that an equation can be formed. It is mostly denoted by the symbol <, >, ≤, and ≥.

The graph of y ≥ −3x + 3 will be a solid line with the equation y=−3x + 3, this solid line signifies that the value on this line is also included in the solution. Since the symbol is '≥' therefore the area above the line will have the solutions.

The graph of y<(3/2)x -6 will be a dashed line with the equation y=(3/2)x - 6, this dashed line signifies that there is no solution on the line. since the inequality symbol is '<' therefore, the area under the dashed line will have all the solutions.

The area where both shaded areas meet is the area that will have all the possible solutions.

PartB:

y ≥ −3x + 3

3 ≥ -3(-6) + 3

3 ≥ 18 + 3

Since the above inequality is not satisfied, (-6, 3) is not the solution to the system of inequalities.

What's the transformation about?

Reflect across the y-axis: For any point (x, y), the reflection across the y-axis is (-x, y).

Translation by vector <1, 3>: For any point (x, y), the new coordinates after translation are (x + 1, y + 3).

Let's apply these transformations step by step:

A (2, 2):

Reflect across y-axis: (-2, 2).

Translate by <1, 3>: (-2 + 1, 2 + 3) = (-1, 5).

So, A" is (-1, 5).

B (1, -2):

Reflect across y-axis: (-1, -2).

Translate by <1, 3>: (-1 + 1, -2 + 3) = (0, 1).

So, B" is (0, 1).

C (4, -4):

Reflect across y-axis: (-4, -4).

Translate by <1, 3>: (-4 + 1, -4 + 3) = (-3, -1).

What is volume?

It is defined as a three-dimensional space enclosed by an object or thing.

Part 1:

Volume of larger solid = (512) cubic cm

Volume of small solid = 2197 cubic cm

Ratio of the volumes = 512/2197

Taking cube root:

Similarity ratio = 8/13

Part 2:

Similarity ratio by taking the cube root of each volume = 8/13

Taking the square of the above ratio:

Part 3:

64/169  = 960/SA(larger)

SA(larger) = 2535 square cm
