Diego and Jada were asked “How many rhombuses are in a trapezoid?”Diego says, “113. If I put 1 rhombus on a trapezoid, the leftover shape is a triangle, which is 13 of the trapezoid.”
Jada says, “I think it’s 112. Since we want to find out ‘how many rhombuses,’ we should compare the leftover triangle to a rhombus. A triangle is 12 of a rhombus.”
Select all equations that can be used to answer the question: “How many rhombuses are in a trapezoid?”
