Solution Steps

Step 1: Write the formula for the area of a trapezoid

Area = (1/2) * (base1 + base2) * height

Step 2: Substitute the given values into the formula

Here, base1 = 8 cm, base2 = 20 cm, and height = 9 cm. Substituting these values into the area formula gives: Area = (1/2) * (8 cm + 20 cm) * 9 cm

Step 3: Calculate the area

Area = (1/2) * (28 cm) * 9 cm Area = 14 cm * 9 cm Area = 126 cm²

Final Answer: The final answer is $\boxed{126 cm^2}$

Two forces, F1 and F2, act at a point, as shown in ( Figure 1). F1 has a magnitude of 9.80 N and is directed at an angle of α=65.0° above the negative x axis in the second quadrant. F2 has a magnitude of 5.60 N and is directed at an angle of β′=53.7° below the negative x axis in the third quadrant. What is the y component Fy of the resultant force? Express your answer in newtons. Fy=4.4 N What is the magnitude F of the resultant force? Express your answer in newtons. F=8.7 N What is the angle y that the resultant force forms with the negative x axis? In this problem, assume that positive angles are measured clockwise from the negative x axis Express your answer in degrees. γ= degrees
