Answer:
A=24 sq ft
P=20 ft
Explanation:
To make this easier, separate the triangle and the rectangle. To find the area of the triangle multiply the bases and the height and then divide the answer by. So,
(6x4)/2
(24)/2
A=12
The base of the triangle is the same as the base on the rectangle. To get the perimeter, add the 3 side values up.
5+5+6
P=16
For the rectangle, to get the area, just multiply the base value and the height value. So,
(6x2)
A=12
To get the perimeter, add all the side values up. So,
6+6+2+2
P=12
Add the 5 sides of the pentagon up for the perimeter.
5+5+2+2+6
P=20
And finally, add the area of the triangle and the rectangle to get the area of the pentagon.
12+12
A=24
