Answer:

105 cm squared

Explanation:

15 × 6 to get the rectangle = 90

Now we have a triangle left so you do 15 - 9 for the base which equals = 6 and multiply that by hight (6×5=30) and since it's a triangle and not a square we have to divide that answer by 2 and we get 15, and once we add those together, we get 105. (I really hope that help!!)

Answer:

105 cm²

Explanation:

Divide the shape into a rectangle and a triangle.

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Therefore, Area = 6 x 15 = 90 cm²

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Therefore, height = 11 - 6 = 5cm

Base = 15 - 9 = 6 cm

So, area of the triangle = 1/2 x 5 x 6 = 15 cm²

Sum both areas to find total area:

90 + 15 = 105 cm²
