Find the area of this composite shape
11 cm
"11 cm
18 cm
6.5 cm

166.5 cm squared

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply 11x11 =121

Multiply 7x6.5 =45.5 (we get the 7 because 18-11=7)

Then we add 121 and 45.5 and get 166.5

since your problem is x^4 = 81, what you have to undeo is the "to the fourth power" part.

the inverse (opposite operation) of "to the fourth power" is "to the fourth root".

  (x^4) ^ ¼   = 81 ^ ¼  

  81 = 3^4     so (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ 1   = 3

by hand: (3 ^ 4) ^ ¼   =   3 ^ (4 x ¼) = 3 ^ 1   = 3   (when you take a power to a power, multiply the exponents.)

or, do it by calculator. one way of finding the fourth root is to use ^ (1/4)
