Question

1. the pattern shows the dimensions of a quilting square that nakida will use to make a quilt. how much blue fabric will she need to make one square? (hint: use the formula a = bh.) (example 1)

Explanation:

Step1: Identify base and height of blue - fabric shape

The blue - fabric part forms a parallelogram. The base $b = 6.1$ in and the height $h=8.2$ in.

Step2: Apply the area formula

Using the formula $A = bh$, substitute $b = 6.1$ and $h = 8.2$. So $A=6.1\times8.2$.
$A = 50.02$ square inches.

Answer:

$50.02$ square inches
