Question

Find the area of the figure pictured below

Answer 1

54 cm²

Explanation:

you can draw a horizontal line through the 2 cm side to create a 2x7 cm rectangle with an area of 14

then you're left with a 4x10* cm rectangle with an area of 40

40+14 = 54

*it's 10 not 12 because you accounted for 2cm already

Answer 2

54 should be the answer
