A company designs a logo using a kite figure around the letter t. The logo is 12 centimeters wide and 16 centimeters tall. What is the area of the logo? 48 sq. cm 96 sq. cm 144 sq. cm 192 sq. cm

Answer 1

Answer

96 sq. cm

Solution

Area of kite with two diagonals p and q can be written as,

A=(pq)/2

Here the logo is 12 centimeters wide and 16 centimeters tall means that

Width of kite=12cm and Height of kite = 16cm

p=12cm and q=16cm

The are of logo = area of kite with diagonals p and q

Area, A=pq/2

           =(12 x16)/2=96 sq. cm

Answer 2

Given:

A kite figure

Width = 12 cm

Length = 16 cm

To find:

The area

Solution:

Area of kite can be given by,

Area = ( Width * Height ) / 2

The area of logo = The area of kite with diagonals

Area = ( 12 x 16 ) / 2

Hence, Area = 96 sq.cm

The area of the logo is 96 sq.cm
