Answer:

21cm^2

Explanation:

1/2 5 x 6 = 15

1/2 x 4 x 3 = 6

15+6 = 21cm^2

If you was working out a missing angle you would 1/2 the longest lines and add them up then add the shortest line

ie) 1/2 6 = 3

1/2 3 5 = 2.5

36+ 25 = 61 sq rt

= 7.81

Then find your multiplier 6/5 = 1.2 you take this multiply by 10

12 and half it = 6 x 7.810 = 46.86 = your angle for the larger triangle.

The smaller triangle missing angle is same method but you keep the multiplier without multiplying by 10 or halfling it, you need to half the 2 sides first then add them to the smaller side found doing Pythagoras and find you r multiplier large side/ second largest side = x then times x by the multiplier two sides halved and smaller side added. = 3 sq 4 sw = 9+16 = 25 sq = 5 large then + half 4 = 2 + 3

= 2.5+ 2 + 3 = 7.5

then 5/4 = 1.25

=1.25 x 10 = 12.5 then half it = 6.5 then multiply it by 7.5

=6.5 x 7.5 = 48.75 missing angle smaller triangle.

We’ll call shape 1 the bigger, top triangle, and shape 2 the smaller, bottom triangle.

Formula for area of a triangle is 1/2(base)(height)

For shape 1, the base is 5 and the height is 6.
1/2(5)(6) = 1/2(30) = 15

Shape 2, the base is 4 and the height is 3.
1/2(3)(4) = 1/2(12) = 6

Shape 1 + shape 2 = 15 + 6 = 21.

The units are square feet, because it’s area.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
