Step-by-step explanation:

Lets talk about propositions in general. If you have the propositions "p,q" When we say that  "p" is sufficient, that's an other way to say that,

                                                      p⇒q                                          

Let me give you an other brief example, lets say you have the propositions "x,y", when we say that "x" is sufficient, that means that

                                                      x⇒y

                                                  IMPORTANT.

Notice that if I say that "p" is sufficient, that does not imply that "q" is sufficient, in other words, If I know that

                                                       p⇒q                                          

NOT NECESARILLY

                                                       q⇒p

                                Lets work on the problem.

Step 1.

When you say that (1) is sufficient it means that

                                                   (1)⇒(2)

In other words

                   "If     r = s = 1    then   r – s is the least of the numbers"

That's true because, if r=s=1 , then, r+s = 2, r-s = 0, and  r × s = 1, r/s = 1, so, in fact, r-s = 0 is the least of the numbers.

Step 2.

Notice that (2) is NOT sufficient.

                                     (2) DOES NOT  imply  (1)

You just have to give a counter example.

For example r=s=2, r+s = 4, r × s = 4, r/s = 1 and r-s = 0, so, in fact, r-s is the least of the numbers, but is NOT true that r=s=1.

step-by-step explanation:

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units
