Error in 6th Grade Curriculum Book

257 Views Asked by At

 This problem appeared in a 6th grade math book for the purpose of finding area, since the two sides are 25cm it is known that the opposite angles are congruent, so they must meet over the midpoint of the 43cm length meaning that the top right triangle couldn't possibly have a length of 24cm from edge to midpoint correct?

I believe you are right, this may be a little mistake, and if you have a teacher you could ask, then I would ask them.
