How do I find the area of this shape. Please help I need to turn this in today

A = 70 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all 4 sides are congruent then figure is a rhombus

The area (A) of a rhombus is calculated as

A = × d₁ × d₂ ( d₁ and d₂ are the diagonals )

Here d₁ = 7 + 7 = 14 and d₂ = 5 + 5 = 10 , then

A = × 14 × 10 = 7 × 10 = 70 units²

, and

for

step-by-step explanation:

we can analyze the pattern at which the terms increase. let us denote , , , so that we can call

note the following:

the pattern: to get the next term value, we just add the next term number (e.g. 1st, 2nd, to the previous term value (term values are the given numbers in the question, 1, 3, 6, 10, 15,

from , to get to , we add

from , to get to , we add

etc.

we need to form a recursive formula, a formula that has the next term as a function of the previous term. so a possible recursive formula can be
