Question

What is the area of this figure

Answer 1

21m^2

Explanation:

Find the area of one rectangle

5 * 2 = 10

Then find the area of the other rectangle

6 * 2 = 12

Then add that together

10 + 12 = 22

Then find the area of the overlap

1 * 1 = 1

Then subtract the area of the overlap from the area of the rectangles

22 - 1 = 21
