What is the area of the triangle?
16
8
10

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the area of both triangles inside the bigger triangle and add them together.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to find the missing length of the leg in the smallest triangle:

a² + b² = c²

8² + b² = 10²

64 + b² = 100

36 = b²

6 = b

Calculate the area of the smaller triangle:

1/2(bxh)

1/2(6 x 8)

1/2(48)

24

Calculate the area of the bigger triangle:

We know that the longer leg is 10 units because we were able to subtract the length of the smaller triangle's leg from 16.

1/2(bxh)

1/2(10 x 8)

1/2(80)

40

Add both areas to find the area of the largest triangle:

40 + 24 = 64

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

hope that .

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?
