NO LINKS!! Part 2: Find the area of each shape below. Show any lines that you need on the shape to help you determine the area. Show any calculations that you make to determine the area.

Problem 2

Check out the attached image below. I've subdivided the figure into various rectangles and triangles. The reason for this is because we'll then use the area formulas for rectangles and triangles. After finding the area of each little sub-region, you add them up to get the final answer.

We have these six regions: A, B, C, D, E, F

Regions B and D are squares, while everything else is a triangle

Add up those results:

1.5+1+1+1+1+1.5 = 7

=============================================================

Problem 4

The figure is divided into various smaller pieces similar to the previous problem. There are probably a few different ways to subdivide.

This time nearly everything is a triangle, with the lone exception being region D which is a rectangle.

Add up the subtotals

A+B+C+E+F+G = 1+1+1+2+0.5+1.5+0.5 = 7.5

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.

step-by-step explanation:

notice that the equation you are given has -2 (negative 2) on the right side, not 2. when you subtract 5 from a number n, you are finding the difference between the number and 5.

the difference between a number and 5 is -2.
