A stop sign is shown Each side opposite side is 124 inches a

A stop sign is shown. Each side opposite side is 12.4 inches, and the distance from any side to the opposite side is 30 inches. Divide the stop sign into one rectangle and two trapezoids. What are the dimensions of the rectangle and each of the trapezoids? Show your work. Dimensions of Rectangle Length Width Dimensions of Each Trapezoid Shorter Base Longer Base Height

Solution

Solution

A)      To    find   the dimensions   of    the rectangle   and    each   of   the trapezoid

         Here , Distance from   any side to   the opposite side is   30 inches

         Each side = 12.4 inches

         Therefore , Length of    the rectangle = 30 inches

                             Width    of    the rectangle = 12.4 inches

           

Now ,   Dimensions   of    the   Trapezoid  

                      Shorter Base = 12.4 inch

                      Longer Base = 30 inches
