Question

What is the area of the figure below? PLEASE HELP ​

Answer 1

61

Explanation:

Subtract 5 from the 12 ( as 5 is smaller), then multiply 8 x 5. Then multiply the remaining number from 12 (7) by 3. Then add the 2 sums together.

Answer 2

Explanation:

This can be broken down into a square and a rectangle.

A=5(5)+(12)(8-5)

A=25+12(3)

A=25+36

A=61 u^2
