Answer:
The area of one tile is 80 sq.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given a a row of four identical tiles, each in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid.
The two isosceles trapezoid makes a parallelogram
Base of parallelogram =16 inch
Height of parallelogram = 10 inch
Area of parallelogram =[tex]base \times Height[/tex]
Area of parallelogram = [tex]16 \times 10 = 160 sq. in.[/tex]
Area of 2 trapezoid = 160 sq. in.
Area of 1 trapezoid =[tex]\frac{160}{2}= 80 sq.in[/tex]
Hence the area of one tile is 80 sq.in.
