An artist is designing a kite like the one show below. calculate the area to determine how much material she will need to create the kite

Area of a triangle = 1/2 Bh

so 6 x 8.5 = 51 and since there is 2 triangles we don't need to divide

Then you have the larger ones so you multiply 8.5 x 13 and get 110.5

so now all you have to do is add 51 + 110.5 which is 161.5 inches<

She needs 161.5 in² of material.

Step-by-step explanation:

A kite is a deltoid.

The formula of an area of a deltoid:

d₁, d₂ - diagonals

We have:
