Answer:

2. area = 504 cm^2

3. x = 30°

Explanation:

2. The figure can be divided across the middle into a rectangular bottom part and a triangular top part. The triangle will have a base length of 21 cm and a height of 32 -16 = 16 cm. Its area is ...

triangle area = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(21 cm)(16 cm) = 168 cm^2

The area of the rectangle is the product of its base (21 cm) and height (16 cm). Its area is ...

rectangle area = bh = (21 cm)(16 cm) = 336 cm^2

Then the total area of the figure is the sum of the areas of its parts:

total area = triangle area + rectangle area

= (168 cm^2) + (336 cm^2) = 504 cm^2

A plane figure has no volume. The volume is zero.

3. The angle whose measure is 4x is supplementary to the angle marked 60°, so is 180° -60° = 120°. That means ...

4x = 120°

x = 120°/4 = 30° . . . . divide by the coefficient of x

The value of x is 30°.
