Question

Complete this table showing the number of shaded triangles in each step and area of each triangle!

Answer 1

Explanation:

From the table attached we find,

Number of shaded triangles = 1

Area of each shaded triangle = 256 square inches

Now we can complete the table following the same pattern,

Step number Number of shaded triangles Area of the shaded triangles

0 1 256

1 3 256 × 3 = 768

2 5 256 × 5 = 1280

3 7 256 × 7 = 1792
