Question

Please help meeeeeeeeeeeew

Answer 1

Explanation:

area=(product of diagonals)/2=(10×8)/2=40 sq. units.

Answer 2

• 40 sq. units

Explanation:

Solution 1

The figure (kite) is symmetric and covers half of the area of rectangle with sides 8 units aby 10 units

The area of the rectangle:

• A = 8*10 = 80 sq. units

The area of the kite:

• A = 1/2*80 = 40 sq. units

Solution 2

Split the kite into two triangles and calculate their area and add up

Triangle DCB has b = 8, h = 2 and has area:

• A = 1/2*8*2 = 8 sq. units

Triangle DAB has b = 8, h = 8 and has area:

• A = 1/2*8*8 = 32 sq. units

Total area:

• 8 + 32 = 40 sq. units
