Question

从一张长方形纸上剪去一个三角形角，形成一个五边形。五边形的五条边长为 $13$ 、 $19$ 、 $20$ 、 $25$ 、 $31$ ，但这不一定是它们沿五边形周界的顺序。五边形的面积是

A pentagon is formed by cutting a triangular corner from a rectangular piece of paper. The five sides of the pentagon have lengths $13,$ $19,$ $20,$ $25$ and $31,$ although this is not necessarily their order around the pentagon. The area of the pentagon is

$459$

$600$

$680$

$720$

$745$

答案：E

小提示：

五边形的两条边就是原长方形的两条完整边长

Two pentagon sides are the original rectangle’s full side lengths

大提示：

在这些长度中寻找两个差，使它们与另一个给定长度构成直角三角形

Look for two differences among the lengths that form the legs of a right triangle with a third listed length

解答：

长方形的完整边长必须大于同一边上剪后剩余部分的长度。唯一能使两个差与剩下的切边构成直角三角形的安排，是边长为 $25$ 和 $31$ 的长方形，对应剩余长度为 $20$ 和 $19$ 。被剪去的角所成直角三角形的两条直角边为 $25-20=5$ 和 $31-19=12$ ，斜边正好是给定边长 $13$ 。因此五边形面积为 $\begin{aligned} 25\cdot31-\frac12(5)(12) &=775-30\\ &=745 \end{aligned}\text{。}$ 所以正确答案是 E。

The full rectangle sides must be longer than the two remnants on those same sides. The only assignment whose two differences and remaining cut side form a right triangle is the rectangle $25$ by $31,$ with remnants $20$ and $19.$ The removed corner then has legs $25-20=5$ and $31-19=12,$ whose hypotenuse is the listed side $13.$ Thus the pentagon’s area is $\begin{aligned} 25\cdot31-\frac12(5)(12) &=775-30\\ &=745. \end{aligned}$ Hence the correct answer is E.
