Question

A kite was broken into two triangles.

A kite is broken into 2 triangles. Both triangles have a base of 16 centimeters and a height of 5 centimeters.

The height of the triangle h is
cm.

Answer 1

its five

Explanation:

Answer 2

Area of the kite = 80
`cm^(2)` , Area of traingle = 40
`cm^(2)` and height of the triangle, h = 5 cm

Explanation:

A kite is broken into two triangles

Given the base of the traingle, b = 16 cm

Height of the triangle, h = 5 cm

Area of traingle =
`(1)/(2) (b.h)`

=
`(1)/(2) (16) (5)`

= 40
`cm^(2)`

Area of the kite = area of triangle 1 + area of triangle 2

= 40 + 40

= 80
`cm^(2)`
