Answer:
The answer is "[tex]10 \ units^2[/tex]"
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
[tex]C= \frac{1}{2}\\\\A_C= 40\\\\A_D= ?\\[/tex]
The factor of scale (c) is the ratio of the two polygons, and the area ratio is the scale factor square.
Formula:
[tex]\frac{A_D}{A_C} =C^2[/tex]
[tex]A_D = \frac{40}{4}\\\\A_D= 10[/tex]
