Question

What is the area of the figure? Enter your answer in the box. in²

Answer 1

`112in^(2)`

Explanation:

to find the area of the square we multiply the base x height so 10x10 which equals 100in^2.

to find the area of the triangle we multiply the base x height divided by 2 so to find the base 10-6 will give us the dotted line which equals 4. to find the height of the triangle we take 16-10 which equals 6. to find the area of the triangle we multiply 6x4/2 to make 12 in^2. to find the total area we add the triangle plus the square 100+12=112in^2
