Arectangular piece of fabric measures 37 by 45 inches. a triangular scarf with a height of 21 inches and a base of 25 inches is cut from the fabric. how much fabric is left over?

2,190 in.2

36 in.2

1,140 in.2

1,402.5 in.2

The fabric is left over be 1402.5 inches² .  

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula

Area of a rectangle = Length × Breadth

As given

A rectangular piece of fabric measures 37 by 45 inches.

Put all the values in the formula

Area of a rectanglar piece of fabric  = 37 × 45

                                                            = 1665 inches²

A triangular scarf with a height of 21 inches and a base of 25 inches is cut from the fabric.

                                                     = 262.5 inches²

Thus

Fabric is left over =  Area of a rectanglar piece of fabric - Area of a triangular scarf

Fabric is left over = 1665 - 262.5

                             = 1402.5 inches²

Therefore the fabric is left over be 1402.5 inches² .
