Question

Find the area of the shape below:

Answer 1

Area of shape = 120 m²

Explanation:

Given:

Height of triangle joint = 4 m

Base = 12 m

Width = 8 m

Find:

Area of shape

Computation:

Area of shape = Area of triangle + Area of rectangle

Area of shape = (1/2)(Base x height) + [Base x Width]

Area of shape = (1/2)(12 x 4) + [12 x 8]

Area of shape = 24 + 96

Area of shape = 120 m²
