You are making a dragon fly kite you want to cover the non-shaded area of the wings with shiny and the dimensions of one pair of wings are shown decompose the figure into simple shapes how many square meters of Mylon will you need to cover them on shade area, one pair of wings?
To decompose the figure into simple shapes, we can divide the wings into two right-angled triangles and one rectangle.
For the triangle:
- Base = 3.5m
- Height = 2.5m
For the rectangle:
- Length = 3.5m
- Width = 0.5m
Total area of shaded area = (2 * Area of triangle) + Area of rectangle
Total area = (2 * (0.5 * 2.5)) + (3.5 * 0.5)
Total area = (2.5) + (1.75)
Total area = 4.25 square meters
Therefore, you will need 4.25 square meters of Mylon to cover the non-shaded area of one pair of wings.
