Integrated Math 2

Practice

Problem 1

Student Task Statement

Technology required. Find the area of the isosceles trapezoid.

<p>Isosceles trapezoid. Bases 1 and 2 = 10 and 15 units. Base angles = 40 degrees </p>

to access Practice Problem Solutions.

Problem 2

Student Task Statement

Technology required. The sun is 62 degrees above the horizon. A tree casts a shadow that is 12 feet long. How tall is the tree?

<p>Right triangle. Height = tree height. Bottom side = shadow formed from tree = 12 units. Hypotenuse from top of tree to end of shadow.</p>
