To find the areas of Fields A and B, you'll need to visually count the number of squares within each field based on the provided image. Since I cannot see images, I can guide you on how to complete the activity:

  1. Field A: Count the number of squares inside Field A. The count will give you the area in acres:

    • Area = __________ acres (insert your count here)
  2. Field B: Similarly, count the number of squares inside Field B for its area:

    • Area = __________ acres (insert your count here)
  3. Field C: To find the area using the Pythagorean Theorem, you'll need to know the lengths of the two legs of the right triangle formed in Field C. If \( a \) and \( b \) are the lengths of the legs, then according to the Pythagorean Theorem:

    • \( c = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \)
    • Once you find \( c \) (the length of the hypotenuse), if the context allows for it (like if it was meant to be rectangular or another geometric shape), you might have to use specific area calculations. For a rectangle or a similar shape, you might consider the area as the product of base and height, or if it’s meant to be another shape use the appropriate formula.

Make sure to insert the values you count or calculate in the blanks provided. If you have specific measurements for Field C, just let me know and I can help calculate the area using the appropriate formulas.
