Question

The figure is made up of 2 rectangles and 2 right triangles. What is the area of the figure? 173 units2 253 units2 277 units2 325 units2 A rectangle with a length of 25 and a height of 5. Two triangles and a rectangle are atop the first rectangle. The triangles have sides touching the first rectangle with measurements of 6 and sides touching the second rectangle with measurements of 8.

Answer 1

277 units2 is correct

Explanation:

I got this from reviewing my answers at the end of the test and got this as the answer and it was marked correct

Answer 2

Here, Area of a Triangle = 1/2 * b * h
A = 1/2 * 6 * 8
A = 1/2 * 48
A = 24

Area of two traingles = 2(24) = 48

Now, Area of a rectangle = 25 * 5 = 125

Now, Total area of the figure = 125 + 48 = 173 units2

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!
