2. Lesson 11-2 Areas of Triangles, Trapezoids, and Rhombi

3. Objectives Find areas of triangles –A = ½ bh Find areas of trapezoids –A = ½ (b 1 + b 2 )h Find areas of rhombi –A = ½ d 1 · d 2 (note: this is the one area formula not on SOL formula sheet)

4. Vocabulary base – the “horizontal” distance of the figure (bottom side) height – the “vertical” distance of the figure area – the amount of flat space defined by the figure (measured in square units) perimeter – once around the figure

5. Area of Triangles, Trapezoids & Rhombi Triangle Area A = ½ * b * h = ½ * ST * RW h is height (altitude) b is base ( ┴ to h) Trapezoid Area A = ½* h* (b 1 + b 2 ) = ½ * LN * (JK + LM) h is height (altitude) b 1 and b 2 are bases (JK & LM) (bases are parallel sides) Rhombus Area A = ½ * d 1 * d 2 = ½ * AD * BC d 1 and d 2 are diagonals A B C D R ST h b1b1 b2b2 W h JK LM N d1d1 d2d2

6. Triangle Area Example R ST W h Find the area of triangle RST 10 45° A = ½ bh = ½ 20(h) = 10h square units (side opposite 45°) h = ½ hyp √2 No hypotenuse! So, area = 10(10) = 100 square units ∆ RSW is right isosceles; so legs are equal! h = 10

7. Trapezoids Area Example h 20 12 JK L M N 60° A = ½ (b 1 + b 2 )h = ½ (12 + 20)(h) = 16h square units (side opposite 60°) h = ½ hyp √3 h = ½ (14) √3 h = 7 √3 So, area = 16(7√3) ≈ 193.99 square units 14 Find the area of trapezoid JKLM

8. Rhombi Area Example A B C D 5 Find the area of rhombus ABCD 5 4 3 A = ½ (d 1 · d 2 ) = ½ (2(3) · 2(4)) = ½ (48) = 24 square units What if we try to find the area by adding the 4 triangles together? A = 4 (½ bh) = 2bh A = 2(3)(4) = 2 (12) = 24 square units!!

9. Example 2-1a Substitution Simplify. The area of the quadrilateral is equal to the sum of the areas of Find the area of quadrilateral ABCD if AC = 35, BF = 18, and DE = 10. Area formula Answer: The area of ABCD is 490 square units.

13. Example 2-4c Answer:6 yd Answer: 27 cm b.Trapezoid QRST has an area of 210 square yards. Find the height of QRST. a. Rhombus ABCD has an area of 81 square centimeters. Find BD if AC = 6 centimeters.

14. Example 2-5a STAINED GLASS This stained glass window is composed of 8 congruent trapezoidal shapes. The total area of the design is 72 square feet. Each trapezoid has bases of 3 and 6 feet. Find the height of each trapezoid. First, find the area of one trapezoid. From Postulate 11.1, the area of each trapezoid is the same. So, the area of each trapezoid is 72  8 or 9 square feet. Next, use the area formula to find the height of each trapezoid.

15. Example 2-5a Answer:Each trapezoid has a height of 2 feet. Area of a trapezoid Substitution Add. Multiply. Divide each side by 4.5.
