Apedestal for a statue is in the shape of a hexagon, formed by a square and two congruent triangles, with the dimensions shown below. what is the area of the top of the pedestal?

You are told the middle part is a square, so all 4 sides are equal.

The height is shown as 4 feet, so the width of the square is also 4 feet.

This means the height of the 2 triangles is 7 - 4 = 3 feet, so each triangle is 1.5 feet high ( 3 feet / 2 = 1.5).

The area of the square is 4 x 4 = 16 square feet.

The area of 1 triangle is 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 4 x 1.5 = 3 square feet.

The total area = 16 + 3 + 3 = 22 square feet.

chemists are often responsible for designing a chemical reaction and analyzing the products obtained from it. one significant part of designing a chemical reaction is determining the amount of each reactant that is needed and the amount of each product that will be produced. in order to do so, chemists use stoichiometry, the quantitative relationships between reactants and products.
