What is the area of the triangle shown below? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a square centimetre.

What is the area of the triangle shown below? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a square centimeter. Area of a triangle = b x h ÷ 2 A = 14.7cm x12.9 cm ÷ 2 A = The area of the triangle is 94.8 cm. 2

The measure of DEF is 84°. If the angle is bisected by line segment EG, what is the measure of the two resulting angles?

84 ÷ 2 = 42 The two resulting angles would each be 42°.

A local sports team held a contest to choose the new team logo. All submitted entries had to use two parallelograms and one triangle with the dimensions given below. What would the total area be for the winning logo?

A local sports team held a contest to choose the new team logo. All submitted entries had to use two parallelograms and one triangle with the dimensions given below. What would the total area be for the winning logo? Area of triangle= b x h ÷ 2 A = 6 x 6 ÷ 2 A = 18 Area of parallelogram = b x h A = 8 x 8 A = 64 Total area of new logo = 1 triangle + 2 parallelograms A = 18 + (2 x 64) A = 146 The total area of the logo would be 146 cm. 2

George is painting a triangular mural to cover one of his attic walls. How much area will George have to paint ?

Afsha has enough paint to cover an area of 7.5 m2. She plans to paint a design on her bedroom wall in the shape of a parallelogram. If the design has a height of 2.5 m, what is the size of the base?

Area of a parallelogram = b x h 7.5 = b x = 3 x 2.5 Therefore, the size of the base is 3 m.
