Question

What is the area?? Please help

Answer 1

324 ft²

Explanation:

We have the triangle and the rectangle.

The formula of an area of a triangle:

`A_(\triangle)=(1)/(2)bh`

b - base

h - height

The formula of an area of a rectangle:

`A_{\boxed{\ }}=lw`

l - length

w - width

We have b = 24 ft, h = 7 ft, l = 24 ft and w = 10 ft.

Substitute:

`A_\triangle=(1)/(2)(24)(7)=(12)(7)=84\ ft^2`

`A_{\boxed{\ }}=(24)(10)=240\ ft^2`

The area of the figure:

`A=A_(\triangle)+A_{\boxed{\ }}`

Substitute:

`A=84+240=324\ ft^2`
