Answer:
shape a is 20 cm squared
Explanation:
shape a is a parallogram, A =b×h. 5x4=20
shape b is a trapezoid. The picture is cut off but here are the steps for you to solve. A=0.5h(base1+base2) count the number of squares on the top and bottom of the shape. I can see the top is 2, you will need to tfind the length of the bottom base.then count the height, how far to get from the bottom to top, here it is 4.
area=0.5*4(2+bottom base) simply and that's your answer! Don't forget your units
