9. Find base of the triangle whose
a) Area= 56cm²; height= 16cm
b) Area= 180cm²; height= 60cm
1
ANS) a) Area = 2 × b × h
 1
56 = = 2 × b × 16
56 = b × 8
56
=b
8
b = 7cm

1
b) Area = 2 × b × h
1
180 = = 2 × b × 60
180 = b × 30
180
=b
30
b = 6cm
10. Bryan works as an underwater photographer. He starts at a position that is 15 feet below sea level. He
rises 9 feet, then descends 12 feet to take a photo of a coral reef. What is his current depth?
ANS)

Bryan starts at a position 15 feet below sea level, rises 9 feet, and then descends 12 feet. Let's calculate
his current depth:

Starting depth: -15 feet

Rising: +9 feet
Descending: -12 feet

To find his current depth, add the changes in depth:

-15 (starting depth) + 9 (rising) - 12 (descending) = -18 feet

Bryan's current depth is 18 feet below sea level.

11. Classify monomials, binomials, and trinomials.

c) Identify the constant term. -20
d) What is the coefficient of ‘b’ the term, 7ab? 7a
e) What is the numerical coefficient in the term, -10a? -10

13. The country park is installing a new playground that consists of a triangular section and parallelogram
section. Find the total area of the playground.
 Area = area of parallelogram + area of triangle.
1
= 20 X 15 + 2 × 20 × 8
= 300 + 80
= 380 cm²

14. The two sides of the parallelogram ABCD are 6 cm and 4 cm. The height
corresponding to the base CD is 3 cm. Find the
(i) area of the parallelogram. (ii) the height corresponding to the base AD

Area of parallelogram = b × h
=6 × 3
=18cm²
let h be corresponding height from base AD
Area of parallelogram = b × h
18 = 4 × h
18
h= 4 𝑐𝑚
