What is the area of the quadrilateral?
3 in length
14in. Width
Let's assume the quadrilateral is a rectangle since we are given the length (3 inches) and width (14 inches).
The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: Area = length * width.
Plugging in the values we have:
Area = 3 inches * 14 inches = 42 square inches.
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 42 square inches.
The area of a quadrilateral is given by the formula: Area = (1/2) * (sum of parallel sides) * (distance between the parallel sides).
In this case, the sum of the parallel sides is 3 inches + 14 inches = 17 inches.
Since the width is perpendicular to the length, the distance between the parallel sides is 3 inches.
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is:
Area = (1/2) * 17 * 3 = 25.5 square inches.
