Tiles are being placed in front of a fireplace to create a trapezoid hearth. The hearth will have a height of 24 inches and bases that are 48 inches and 60 inches. If the tiles cover 16 aquare inches, how many tiles will be needed?

assume that the tiles can be cut
remember that teh formula for a trapezoid is (base1+base2) times (1/2 height)
height=24
base1=48
base2=60
subsitute
(48+60) times (1/2 24)
108 times 12=1296
now wee find out how many tiles
16 is 1 tile
find how many 16's in 1296
1296/16=81
ans: 81 tiles
81 tiles is the final solution b1= 48 in b2= 60 in h= 24 in and Area 1,296
