Question

Cindy has a jacket with the first letter of her school’s name on it. Find the area of the letter on Cindy’s jacket

Answer 1

Cindy’s jacket is 44in cause to find the parrollegrams it’s length time width

Her jacket is 44in

Answer 2

44 square inches.

Explanation:

The area of the letter is formed by several figures.

Notice that all figures are parallelograms, where their area is defined as

`A=bh`

Where
`b` is the base length and
`h` is the height.

Horizontal parallelograms:

`A_(1)=6(2)=12in^(2)`

`A_(2)=6(2)=12in^(2)`

Vertical parallelogram:

`A_(3)=2(10)=20in^(2)`

So, the total area is

`A_(total)=A_(1) +A_(2) +A_(3)=12+12+20=44in^(2)`

Therefore, the answer is 44 square inches.
