The area of a quadrilateral is given by the formula: Area = (1/2) * (sum of parallel sides) * (distance between the parallel sides).
In this case, the sum of the parallel sides is 3 inches + 14 inches = 17 inches.
Since the width is perpendicular to the length, the distance between the parallel sides is 3 inches.
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is:
Area = (1/2) * 17 * 3 = 25.5 square inches.
What is the area of the quadrilateral?
3 in length
14in. Width

No decimals?
Apologies for the oversight. Since the area cannot be in decimals, the area of the quadrilateral would be 25 square inches.
No triangles
Let's assume the quadrilateral is a rectangle since we are given the length (3 inches) and width (14 inches).
The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: Area = length * width.
Plugging in the values we have:
Area = 3 inches * 14 inches = 42 square inches.
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 42 square inches.
The area of a rectangle is given by the formula: Area = length * width.
Plugging in the values we have:
Area = 3 inches * 14 inches = 42 square inches.
Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 42 square inches.
