SOLUTION:
Case: Area of plane shapes
Method:
a) Parallelogram
To find the area we need to find the perpendicular height (using Pythagoras theorem)
The Area of a parallelogram is given as:
b) Triangle
To find the area of the triangle, we need to find the base first
First, lets find 'a'
The base, b
b= 2(a)
b= 2 (36.06)
b= 72.12
The area of the triangle is:
Final answer:
a) Parallelogram,
A= 552 square feet
b) Triangle
A= 2163.6 square feet
