Question

What is the area of the polygon given below?​

Answer 1

C 340 square units

Explanation:

Divide it into smallest pieces.

I see two rectangles that I'm going to do.

The long rectangle reading the paper from bottom to top is a 4 by (4+11+4) rectangle.

The wide rectangle reading the paper from left to right is a 24 by 11 rectangle.

We need to find the area of both of these rectangles and then just add them together to get the total area.

So first rectangle has area 4(19)=76 and the second rectangle has area 264. The sum of these two numbers are 340 square units.

Answer 2

Hello There!

The answer would be 340 square units

First, let's find the area of our small rectangle located to the left. The formula for a rectangle is width*height so we would multiply19 because we know that on our right rectangle the height is 11 and we would add 4 to that and add another 4 to that to get our length of our rectangle on the left.

Next, we multiply 24 by 11 because we are using our same formula for the rectangle on the right and once we multiply, we get a product of 264.

Finally, we add 264 and our area of the rectangle on the right together and get a sum of 340 square units.

Have A Great Day!
