Answer:
Explanation:
Hello there!
To solve for the area we want to split the irregular figure into two regular figures
A triangle with a base of 29 m and a height of 19m and
A rectangle with a width of 10 m and a length of 29 m
now we solve for the area of each individual shape
For the triangle:
The formula for area of a triangle is
where b = base and h = height
we know what the dimensions are so all we have to do is plug in the values
so we can conclude that the area of the triangle part is 275.5 m²
Now lets find the area of the rectangle
to find the area of a rectangle we just multiply the length and width
so A = 10 x 29
10 x 29 = 290
so the area of the rectangle is 290 m²
Finally we add the two areas together
290 + 275.5 = 565.5
so we can conclude that the area of the irregular figure is 565.5 m²
