Answers and reasoning

Reveal the teacher answer key
  1. x = 4

    Subtract 5 on both sides. Then x = 4; substitution gives 9 on each side.

  2. 32 cm²

    A = bh/2 = 16 × 4 ÷ 2 = 32. Two such triangles make a parallelogram.

  3. 16 cm²

    A = bh/2 = 16 × 2 ÷ 2 = 16. Two such triangles make a parallelogram.

  4. 63 m²

    A = (6 + 12) × 7 ÷ 2 = 63.

  5. 27 m²

    Whole rectangle 30; remove triangle 3; difference 27.
