Question

Help ASSp please work out the value of A

Answer 1

A = 3x^2 - 3

---------------

2

Explanation:

If the perimeter is 56 cm..

x - 1 + 3x + 3x + 1 = 56

7x = 56

x=8

The x - 1 side = 7

The 3x = 1 side - 25

The ex side = 24

The area of a triangle = base time height divided by 2.

So...

x-1 times 3x divided by 2 is your equation.

3x(x - 1) = 3x^2 - 3

A = 3x^2 - 3/2

Hope this is correct!!!
