10.2: Areas of Trapezoids, Rhombuses and Kites

Important Vocabulary:

Height of a trapezoid

Trapezoid: a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel sides, known as bases

Area of a Trapezoid

Area = ½ h(b1 + b2)

h = height of the trapezoid (perpendicular segment between bases)

b1 and b2 = lengths of the two parallel sides

Examples: Find the area of the following trapezoids.

1) 2)

3) 4)

Rhombus: quadrilateral with all four sides congruent

Kite: quadrilateral with 2 pairs of consecutive sides congruent and no parallel sides

Remember:

1) You need each diagonal length.

2) The angle formed in the middle is a right angle.

10.3: Areas of Regular Polygons

Regular Polygon: polygon that is equilateral and equiangular

Radius of a Regular Polygon:

Apothem:

Label the center, side and apothem on the lines. Then draw in the radius.

Finding Angle Measures:

1. Divide 360 by the number of sides. (This finds the central angle)

2. Divide this by 2, this gives you the angle at the center when the apothem is drawn.

3. The apothem forms a right angle with a side. Subtract the number you found and 90 from 180

to find the third angle.

Examples: Find the measure of each numbered angle inside the regular polygon.

1) 2)

Postulate 10-1: If 2 figures are congruent, then their areas are equal.

Theorem 10-6: The area of a regular polygon is the product of the perimeter and

.

A = ½ Pa

P= perimeter; a = apothem

Examples: Find the area of the each regular polygon with the given side length and apothem.

3) Pentagon w/ a = 1.6 in and s = 2.4 in 4) Decagon w/ a = 3.8 in and s = 2.5 in

5) Find the area of a regular pentagon with an 8cm apothem and sides 11.6cm.

Using 45-45 and 30-60 within Regular Polygons

Squares: Use 45-45 to find missing pieces if you know the apothem or radius and “use your smarts”.

Triangles and Hexagons: Apply 30-60 techniques to find missing pieces.

Examples: Find the area of the following regular polygons.

10.4: Perimeters and Areas of Similar Figures

REMEMBER TO SIMPLIFY FRACTIONS!!!!

Ratios can be used to compare perimeters and areas of similar figures.

Similar Figures: figures with the same angle measures, but sides are proportional

Radius of a Polygon: segment from the center of a polygon to a vertex

Example: Use the figure to answer the following questions.

1) What segment is NOT a radius of the polygon?

2) Are the radii congruent?

3) Are the triangles formed by the radii congruent?

Examples:

4) What is the ratio called that compares two corresponding sides of similar figures?

5) Assume that the scale factor is 2:3.

a) What is the ratio of the perimeters from small to large?

b) What is the ratio of the areas from small to large?

Examples: Assume the figures are similar. For the following, find the scale factor from the first to the

second figure. Then, find the ratio of their perimeters and areas.

6) 7)

If you can determine the ratio of the perimeter or area of the figures, a proportion can be used to find

missing values.

Examples: The following figures are similar. The area of one is given. Find the area of the other to the

nearest whole number.

8) 9)

Area of Smaller = 54 in2 Area of Larger = 100 cm2

Examples: Find the scale factor and the ratio of perimeters for each pair of similar figures.

10) two regular pentagons with areas 50 in.2 and 162 in.2

11) two rectangles with areas 8 m2 and 98 m2

What is probability?

Geometric Probability: the ratio that involves geometric lengths or area

In other words: the probability that a point lies on a segment is the length of what you want to

happen over the length of all that can happen.

segment.
