Question

Area of composite figures worksheet #1 (don’t mind the pen it’s a mistake)

Answer 1

Given that,

Rectangular room is of the dimension 12 feet by 18 feet

To find the number of square feet of carpet needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the rectangle is,

`\text{ length}*\text{ breadth}`

Area of the rectangular room is,

`12*18`
`=270\text{ ft}^2`

Area of the rectangular room is 270 square feet.

Therefore, 270 square feet of carpet are needed to cover the room.

we know that,

`1\text{ yard }=3\text{ feet}`

Using this conversion we get,

`270\text{ ft}^2=270((1)/(3)\text{ yd})^2`
