Question

2) What is the area of figure ABCD, in

square centimeters?
8 cm.
6 cm
6 cm
B
15 cm

Answer 1

138cm^2

Explanation:

Trianle area = (b*h)/2

b = 8cm + 15cm

h = 6cm

Triangle area = (23*6)/2

138/2 = 69cm^2

Upper triangle area

--------------------------------

since both triangles share the same base and height

69*2 = 138cm^2
