Answer:
7.07?
Step-by-step explanation:
Its 2x^2-4x, to check it add it to 3x^2-2x or
2x^(2)-4x+3x^(2)-2x
The equation for a trapezoid is A = a+b all over 2 times h
So, you would simply substitute.
A=15
B=12
H=8
15+12/2 (8)=
27/2 (8)=
13.5 (8)=
108.
Compare the areas of the 2 different pieces of paper.
For the circle, the area is A=pi * r^2, which works out to A = pi(5 inches)^2.
For the square, the area is A = s^2, where is the side length, which here is 11 inches.
Finish these calculations, and then compare your two areas. Which is the larger?
