#71. Calculate the distance travelled by the runner in the velocity/time graph.
The area under the graph = distance travelled
Split the graph into triangles and rectangles and calculate the areas. Then add together the areas.
Area of a rectangle = Length x Height
Area of a triangle = 1/2 x Length x Height
90m 120m 180m = 390m
NOTE: the graph starts at one second and not 0. Don’t be fooled, look at the axes carefully before attempting a question.
