: You are looking at a 260 foot by 180 foot building lot to subdivide and build two houses. Your town requires 1/2 acre (one acre = 43,560 square feet) to build a house. How many acres are in this building lot and how many houses will the town allow you to build on this lot?

1.074 acres are there in this building lot.

2 houses will be allowed to build on this lot.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions of the building lot are 260 ft 180 ft.

The building lot is rectangular in shape.

Area of the building lot (Length Width) is:

It is given that:

So, 1.074 acres are there in this building lot.

A house is build on acres and we have ~1 acre of land in the building lot.

So, town will allow to build 2 houses on this land.

glide reflection.

its mainly because the pattern will be infinite and will never end. it will look like a gilder or like a filpbook when set to motion.

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
