Question

Find the area of this shape. 100pts​

Answer 1

The area equals 540. You first need to divide the shape into three different parts. Then you find the area of the bottom which is 270. Then find the area pf the middle one which is 180 and then the very top one is 90. Then you add all of them together to find the area which is 540.

Answer 2

A = 540 m²

Explanation:

consider the shape split into 3 rectangles

the length is divided into 3 congruent sections

single dash = 30 m ÷ 3 = 10 m

the width is divided into 3 congruent sections

double dash = 27 m ÷ 3 = 9 m

then area (A) is the total of the 3 rectangular areas

A of left rectangle = 10 × 9 = 90 m²

A of middle rectangle = 10 × (9 + 9) = 10 × 18 = 180 m²

A of right rectangle = 10 × 27 = 270 m²

total area = 90 + 180 + 270 = 540 m²
