The total area of the new doghouse that Julio needs to paint is 96 square feet
Calculating the area of that Julio paint
From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:
The composite figure
The total area that Julio paints in the figure is the sum of the individual shapes
Where, we have the following shapes and dimensions:
4 squares of: 4 ft by 4 ft
4 triangles of: 4 ft by 4 ft
Using the area formulas, we have the following:
4 squares: 4 * 4 * 4 = 64
4 triangles: 4 * 1/3 * 4 * 4 = 32
Add up the individual areas
Area = 64 + 32
Evaluate the expression
Area = 96
Hence. the the area of that Julio paints is 96 square feet
