Find the area of the image below: a. 24.6 square units b. 25.8 square units c. 26.3 square units d. 27.5 square units

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The area of the image is equal to the area of the complete square minus the area of triangle 1, minus the area of triangle 2, minus the area of triangle 3, minus the area of trapezoid 4

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Find the area of the complete square

Find the area of triangle 1

Find the area of triangle 2

Find the area of triangle 3

Find the area of triangle 4

The area of the image is equal to

step-by-step explanation:

since the sequence is geometric there is a common ratio r between consecutive terms, that is

r = 4 ÷ - 2 = - 2

r = - 8 ÷ 4 = - 2

r = 16 ÷ 8 = - 2

the next term - 13 must be incorrect as it should be - 32 for the sequence to be geometric.

the first 4 terms are therefore geometric with common ratio r = - 2
