Me on this ! i can’t find out how to do it!

Area of a rectangle = length x width
14 x 7 = 98cm2
25squaredx7squared = 175 (Pythagoras)
Sroot of 175 = 13.23
13.23cm (length of triangle)
13.23x7= 92.61
92.61 divided by 2
Area of triangle = 46.3cm2

To work out the area of a triangle, you need to do (b x h) divided by 2. Therefore, you need to work out BE and AB. To work out BE, you need to use the information about the rectangle to help you.

Divide 98cm squared by 14 cm (DE) so find BE, so 7cm.

Also, you need to work out line AB to find the area. To do this, you need to use Pythagoras theorem.

You know that c squared = a squared + b squared (with c being the hypotenuse).
a squared = c squared - b squared.
a squared = 25 squared (i.e. AE) - 7 squared (i.e. BE)
a squared = 625 - 49
a squared = 576
a = the square root of 576
a = 24 cm
AB = 24 cm

So now we know the base and height of the triangle so we can apply the formula.

(b x h) divided by 2 = area
(24 cm x 7 cm) divided by 2 = area
168 cm squared divided by 2 = area
94 cm squared = area

Your final answer is 94 cm squared.

Any questions just message me!

7days is 168 hours in decimal form it is just 168 there is no decimal form for this because it is like 168.0 and there is no number you are dividing it by for it to be a decimal.hope this
