1)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 49 cm
              41cm                                   98cm

 

Answer: 2401 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
49 cm 
               41 cm                                  98 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 41 cm + 98 cm


                 = 139 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 139 cm x 49 cm = 3405.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 41 cm x 49 cm = 1004.5 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 3405.5 cm2 - 1004.5 cm2 = 2401 cm2



2)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 24 cm
              11cm                                   79cm

 

Answer: 948 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
24 cm 
               11 cm                                  79 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 11 cm + 79 cm


                 = 90 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 90 cm x 24 cm = 1080 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 11 cm x 24 cm = 132 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1080 cm2 - 132 cm2 = 948 cm2



3)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 21 cm
              12cm                                   84cm

 

Answer: 882 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
21 cm 
               12 cm                                  84 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 12 cm + 84 cm


                 = 96 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 96 cm x 21 cm = 1008 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 12 cm x 21 cm = 126 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1008 cm2 - 126 cm2 = 882 cm2



4)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 32 cm
              14cm                                   67cm

 

Answer: 1072 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
32 cm 
               14 cm                                  67 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 14 cm + 67 cm


                 = 81 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 81 cm x 32 cm = 1296 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 14 cm x 32 cm = 224 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1296 cm2 - 224 cm2 = 1072 cm2



5)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 10 cm
              27cm                                   91cm

 

Answer: 455 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
10 cm 
               27 cm                                  91 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 27 cm + 91 cm


                 = 118 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 118 cm x 10 cm = 590 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 27 cm x 10 cm = 135 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 590 cm2 - 135 cm2 = 455 cm2



6)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 15 cm
              18cm                                   47cm

 

Answer: 352.5 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
15 cm 
               18 cm                                  47 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 18 cm + 47 cm


                 = 65 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 65 cm x 15 cm = 487.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 18 cm x 15 cm = 135 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 487.5 cm2 - 135 cm2 = 352.5 cm2



7)  

The figure is not drawn to scale.
What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 26 cm
              25cm                                   92cm

 

Answer: 1196 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
26 cm 
               25 cm                                  92 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 25 cm + 92 cm


                 = 117 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 117 cm x 26 cm = 1521 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 25 cm x 26 cm = 325 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1521 cm2 - 325 cm2 = 1196 cm2



8)

              35cm                                   72cm

 

Answer: 1224 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
34 cm 
               35 cm                                  72 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 35 cm + 72 cm


                 = 107 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 107 cm x 34 cm = 1819 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 35 cm x 34 cm = 595 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1819 cm2 - 595 cm2 = 1224 cm2



9)

What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 14 cm
              22cm                                   67cm

 

Answer: 469 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
14 cm 
               22 cm                                  67 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 22 cm + 67 cm


                 = 89 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 89 cm x 14 cm = 623 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 22 cm x 14 cm = 154 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 623 cm2 - 154 cm2 = 469 cm2

What is the area of the unshaded triangle

 14 cm
              10cm                                   65cm

 

Answer: 455 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
14 cm 
               10 cm                                  65 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 10 cm + 65 cm
