kyleigh put a large rectangular sticker on her notebook.the height of the sticker measures 18 cm. the base is half as long as the height. what area of the notebook does the sticker cover?

Respuesta :

The area is 27 because 18 + half of 18 (9) = 27

Answer:

Area of rectangle(A) is given by:

[tex]A = bh[/tex]             ....[1]

where,

b is the base and h is the height of the rectangle.

As per the statement:

kyleigh put a large rectangular sticker on her notebook.

The height of the sticker measures 18 cm.

⇒ h = 18 cm

Since,  the base is half as long as the height.

⇒[tex]b = \frac{18}{2} = 9[/tex] cm

Substitute in [1] we have;

[tex]A = 18 \cdot 9 = 162 cm^2[/tex]

Therefore, 162 square cm is the area of the notebook does the sticker cover.
