Question

What is the area of this figure?
2 km
15 km
9 km
5 km
3 km
6 km

Answer 1

Answer: 48 (km)^2

Therefore, The AREA of the FIGURE is 48 (km)^2

• Explanation:

ANALYZE:

Given the figure with the corresponding measures.

Find the AREA of the figure. AREA of A + AREA of B

• ANALYZE:

DIVIDE the given FIGURE into tWO FIGURES (Vertical Rectangle-Top Figure/Square-Bottom Figure) The AREA of the GIVEN FIGURE is the SUM of the AREA of both figures.

• CALCULATE AREA OF VERTICAL RECTANGLE (Top Figure):
  2 * 9 = 18 (km)^2

• CALCULATE AREA OF THE SQUARE BOTTOM FIGURE:

5 * 6 = 30 (knm)^2

• SOLVE THE PROBLEM:

(2 * 9) + (5 * 6)

18 + 30

30 + 18 = 48 (km)^2

• DRAW A CONCLUSION:

Therefore, The AREA of the FIGURE is 48 (km)^2
