Question

What is the area of the bulletin board?

Answer 1

Answer: 144

Explanation:

since the shorter side is 2 cubed inches, the opposite side is the same length. same thing with the longer side, it’s 4 cubed inches, which the opposite side is the same length

so if you take 2 cubed and add it with 2 cubed, you will get 16.

then you take 4 cubed and add it with 4 cubed, and you get 128.

and then finally, you want to add those 2 answers together: so 16 plus 128.

you will get your final answer, which is 144.
