1. Count the number of squares inside Field A. This is the area of Square A in acres. Write it below: (1 point)
Area = _________ acres
2. Count the number of squares inside Field B. This is the area of Square B in acres. Write it below: (1 point)
Area = __________ acres
3. SHOW YOUR WORK: Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the area of Field C in acres:
To find the area of Field C using the Pythagorean Theorem, we need to know the lengths of the two sides of the triangle formed by the sides of Field C.
Assuming the horizontal side of Field C is x acres and the vertical side is y acres, we can set up the following equation:
x^2 + y^2 = Field C^2
However, we do not have enough information to solve for x and y. The Pythagorean Theorem can only be used to find the length of one side of a right triangle when the lengths of the other two sides are known.
Therefore, without additional information, we cannot calculate the area of Field C.
