What is the area of the composite figure?
A trapezoid has base lengths of 12 centimeters and 13 centimeters. The other sides have lengths of 5 centimeters and 10 centimeters. A rectangle with side lengths of 2 centimeters and 5 centimeters is connected to the side with length 10 centimeters.
To find the area, first divide the shape into regular, simple shapes. Then use formulas to find the area of the smaller, regular shapes. Lastly, add up all the smaller areas to find the area of the original shape.
The areas will be proportional to (scale)2
No, in general that is not true. For two similar figures it is true. But you can easily design two different figures that have the same perimeters and different areas, or the same area and different perimeters. For example, two rectangles with a different length-to-width ratio.
Try dividing it by 5....
