Question

Find the area????????

Answer 1

Think of the shape as being made up of a rectangle on the left side and a triangle on the right side. Find the two areas and add them.

The left side is a rectangle 40 units by 48 units.

The right side is a triangle with base 48 units and height 16 units.

total area = area of rectangle + area of triangle

total area = LW + bh/w

total area = 40 * 48 + 48 * 16/2

total area = 1920 + 384

total area = 2304 units^2

Answer: c. 2304 units^2

Answer 2

First you find the area of the rectangle by multiplying 48 by 40 = 1920

Then find the area of the triangle by multiplying 16 by 48 then divide by 2 = 384

Finally add the two together to get your answer 1920 + 384 = 2304

C 2304 units squared
