1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 TIME REMAINING 54:32 Because the lid of a marker is wider than the marker itself, a set of markers can be packaged in a container that is in the shape of a trapezoid instead of a rectangle. A trapezoid has a base of 12 inches, height of 10 inches, and top side length of 10 inches. A rectangle has a base of 12 inches and height of 10 inches. What is the difference in area between the two packages

10 Square Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Trapezoid

Base =12 inches

Height =10 inches

Top side= 10 inches.

Area of a Trapezoid

Area of the Trapezoid=110 Square Inches

Rectangle

Base = 12 inches

Height =10 inches.

Area of a Rectangle=Base X Height

=12 X 10

=120 Square Inches

Difference in Area between the two packages

Difference=Area of Rectangle-Area of Trapezoid

=120-110

=10 Square Inches

for ex: the reciprocal of 3/4 is 4/3. it is the opposite.

reciprocal definition:

a mathematical expression or function so related to another that their product is one; the quantity obtained by dividing the number one by a given quantity.

i think this could be a possible answer (1 / 84) -1

good luck! : d
