33. Find the area of the parallelogram above?

120

Step 1: Value of triangle's sides

First, we need to find out the height of the parallelogram, since the equation to find the area is b * h. To find the height, we must use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the sides of the triangle on the right. Since the base is 15 cm, we know that the top is also 15 cm, so we subtract 9 from 15 to get 6. One of the sides of the triangle is 6, and the hypotenuse (longest side of the triangle) is 10.

Step 2: Pythagorean Theorem

. This is the equation we always use if we want to find the sides of a right triangle. Here, a = 6 and c = 10. In the formula, a and c needs to be squared to find b.

Now, we have to subtract c^2 from a^2 to get b^2.

Finally, we find the square of 64 and that is 8.

8 is our height.

Step 3: Finding the area

This last step is really simple. to find the area of this parallelogram, we just have to multiply the height (8) by the base (15).

Our area is 120.

f(x) = x^3 -2x^2 -3x

x( x^2 -2x-3)

x( x^2 +x -3x -3)

x( x(x+1) -3(x+1))

x( x-3)( x+1)

so zeroes are 0, 3,-1
