1)  

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

 49 cm
              43cm                                   64cm

 

Answer: 1568 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
49 cm 
               43 cm                                  64 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 43 cm + 64 cm


                 = 107 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 107 cm x 49 cm = 2621.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 43 cm x 49 cm = 1053.5 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 2621.5 cm2 - 1053.5 cm2 = 1568 cm2



2)  

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

 22 cm
              23cm                                   58cm

 

Answer: 638 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
22 cm 
               23 cm                                  58 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 23 cm + 58 cm


                 = 81 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 81 cm x 22 cm = 891 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 23 cm x 22 cm = 253 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 891 cm2 - 253 cm2 = 638 cm2



3)  

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

 12 cm
              33cm                                   52cm

 

Answer: 312 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
12 cm 
               33 cm                                  52 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 33 cm + 52 cm


                 = 85 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 85 cm x 12 cm = 510 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 33 cm x 12 cm = 198 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 510 cm2 - 198 cm2 = 312 cm2



4)  

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

 12 cm
              25cm                                   65cm

 

Answer: 390 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
12 cm 
               25 cm                                  65 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 25 cm + 65 cm


                 = 90 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 90 cm x 12 cm = 540 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 25 cm x 12 cm = 150 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 540 cm2 - 150 cm2 = 390 cm2



5)  

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

 47 cm
              27cm                                   98cm

 

Answer: 2303 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
47 cm 
               27 cm                                  98 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 27 cm + 98 cm


                 = 125 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 125 cm x 47 cm = 2937.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 27 cm x 47 cm = 634.5 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 2937.5 cm2 - 634.5 cm2 = 2303 cm2



6)  

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

 45 cm
              14cm                                   75cm

 

Answer: 1687.5 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
45 cm 
               14 cm                                  75 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 14 cm + 75 cm


                 = 89 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 89 cm x 45 cm = 2002.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 14 cm x 45 cm = 315 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 2002.5 cm2 - 315 cm2 = 1687.5 cm2



7)  

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

 28 cm
              18cm                                   97cm

 

Answer: 1358 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
28 cm 
               18 cm                                  97 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 18 cm + 97 cm


                 = 115 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 115 cm x 28 cm = 1610 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 18 cm x 28 cm = 252 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 1610 cm2 - 252 cm2 = 1358 cm2

              24cm                                   43cm

 

Answer: 451.5 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
21 cm 
               24 cm                                  43 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 24 cm + 43 cm


                 = 67 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 67 cm x 21 cm = 703.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD  → 12 x 24 cm x 21 cm = 252 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 703.5 cm2 - 252 cm2 = 451.5 cm2



9)

              11cm                                   76cm

 

Answer: 1862 cm2


SOLUTION 1 :
49 cm 
               11 cm                                  76 cm

 


Step 1: AC = 11 cm + 76 cm


                 = 87 cm


Step 2: Area of ACD → 12 x 87 cm x 49 cm = 2131.5 cm2


Step 3: Area of ABD → 12 x 11 cm x 49 cm = 269.5 cm2


Step 4: Area of unshaded triangle BCD → 2131.5 cm2 - 269.5 cm2 = 1862 cm2
