The Student Council is making six right triangular pennants to promote school spirit. Each right triangle is 9 inches high and 2 feet long. In square feet, what is the total area of the six pennant

Respuesta :

I'm kinda guessing but I think it's 4.5 square feet because each triangle has 108 inches of area when you multiply by 6 you get 648 then from there you turn that into square feet

Answer:

Total area of six pennant is 16 feet²

Step-by-step explanation:

The student is making six right triangular pennants to promote school spirit.

Each right triangle is 9 inches high and 2 feet long.

we will convert the height of the triangle from inches to feet.

12 inches = 1 feet

9 inches = [tex]\frac{12}{9}=1.33[/tex] feet

Now we know each triangle is 1.33 feet high and 2 feet long.

Area of the triangular pennant = 1.33×2 = 2.67 feet²

Area of 6 pennant = 2.67×6 = 16 feet²

Therefore, area of six pennant will be 16 feet².
