Answer:

486 in. & 93 m.

Explanation:

a.

The shape shown in part a is a rectangle.

The formula is:

a=b*h

base= 27

height/length= 18

27*18=486

Therefore, the area will be equal to 486 in.

b.

The shape shown in part b is a triangle.

The formula is:

a=1/2b*h

base= 20.75

height=9 (make sure you take the altitude of the triangle, not the slant height)

1/2*20.75*9=93.375

Therefore, the area of the triangle is 93.375 m.

Rounding —> 93 m
