Algebra.Com's Answer #461498 by Cromlix(4381)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! Area of a square with sides (x + 1) \n" ); document.write( "= (x + 1)(x + 1) = x^2 + 2x + 1 \n" ); document.write( "Area of a triangle whose base is 51/2ins \n" ); document.write( "and height 21/4 ins. \n" ); document.write( "= 1/2(51/2 + 21/4) \n" ); document.write( "= 1/2 (31/4) \n" ); document.write( "= 31/8 \n" ); document.write( "= 3 7/8 ins^2 \n" ); document.write( "Hope this heps. \n" ); document.write( ":-) \n" ); document.write( " |
