A rectangle is twice as long as it is tall. Its height is 5 centimeters. What is its area in square centimeters?(1 point) Responses 30 cm2 30 cm squared 25 cm2 25 cm squared 50 cm2 50 cm squared 12.5 cm2
The length of the rectangle is twice the height, so it will be 2 * 5 cm = 10 cm.
To find the area of a rectangle, you multiply its length by its height. In this case, the area will be 10 cm * 5 cm = 50 cm^2.
Therefore, the correct answer is 50 cm2 or 50 cm squared.
Use the formula for the area of a triangle to determine the area of a triangle with base equal to 13 yards and height equal to 5 yards. (1 point) Responses 32.5 square yards 32.5 square yards 65 square yards 65 square yards 18 square yards 18 square yards 27.5 square yards 27.5 square yards
The formula for the area of a triangle is:
Area = 0.5 * base * height
Plugging in the values given, with a base of 13 yards and a height of 5 yards:
Area = 0.5 * 13 yards * 5 yards
Area = 0.5 * 65 square yards
Area = 32.5 square yards
Therefore, the correct answer is 32.5 square yards.
Marigold measures the length and height of a triangular sandwich. If the sandwich’s base measures 4 inches and its area measures 7 square inches, what is the height in inches of the sandwich? (1 point) Responses 1.75 inches 1.75 inches 3.5 inches 3.5 inches 14 inches 14 inches 11 inches 11 inches
The formula for the area of a triangle is:
Area = 0.5 * base * height
Given that the base is 4 inches and the area is 7 square inches, we can plug in these values and solve for the height:
7 = 0.5 * 4 * height
7 = 2 * height
height = 7 / 2
height = 3.5 inches
Therefore, the height of the sandwich is 3.5 inches.
The correct response is 3.5 inches.
