Question

Find the area of the polygon

Answer 1

18

Explanation:

This polygon can be split into a triangle and a parrallelogram.

The parrallelogram has a base of 3 and height of 5.

A = bh; A = 3 x 5 = 15

The triangle has a base of 3 and height of 2.

A = (bh)/2; A = (2 x 3)/2 = 6/2 = 3

15 + 3 = 18
