Answer:

a

20cm squared

b

18cm

c

5cm

d

80cm

Step-by-step explanation:

a

Area is height multiplied by length in a regular quadrilateral

b

Perimeter is calculated by adding all the sides together

c

0.5 is effectively halving, so instead of 4 multiplied by 5 it is 2 multiplied by 2.5

d

2 is effectively doubling, so instead of 4 multiplied by 5 it is 8 multiplied by 10

Answer:

  1. 20 cm²
  2. 18 cm
  3. 5 cm²
  4. 80 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1(a)

  • Area = length x height
  • Area = 5 x 4
  • Area = 20 cm²

Q1(b)

  • Perimeter = 2(length + height)
  • Perimeter = 2(5 + 4) = 2(9)
  • Perimeter = 18 cm

Q1(c)

  • New dimensions are : 5/2 = 2.5 and 4/2 = 2
  • New Area = 2.5 x 2
  • New Area = 5 cm²

Q1(d)

  • New dimensions are : 2 x 5 = 10 and 2 x 4 =  8
  • New Area = 10 x 8
  • New Area = 80 cm²
