Question

Find the area of the figure and choose the appropriate result.
1 m
3.5 m
8 m

Answer 1

Area if figure = 22 m²

Explanation:

Given:

Length of rectangle = 8 m

Width of rectangle = 1 m

Base of triangle = 8 m

Height of triangle = 3.5 m

Find:

Area if figure

Computation:

Area if figure = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle

Area if figure = [l x b] + [(1/2)(b)(h)]

Area if figure = [8 x 1] + [(1/2)(8)(3.5)]

Area if figure = 8 + 14

Area if figure = 22 m²
