Can someone tell me if I'm right or wrong 40 POINTS

Q: Find the area of the figure. (Sides meet at right angles.)
so first I do 7x2=14
then what?

step-by-step explanation:

points a and b are equidistant from the desired line, so the line you find by using them will go through point r.

using points other than a and b will give the desired line only if they are equidistant from r. if they are randomly located, the perpendicular line you create will not necessarily go through point r, hence will not be a solution to the problem.

in counting the number of heads in 4 coin flips, the probability that we get exactly one head is the probability that we get anyone of the following 4 outcomes: httt, thtt, ttht, or ttth. each has probability 1/16, so the probability to get exactly one head in 4 flips is 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 + 1/16 = 4/16 = 1/4.
