Question

Find the area of each polygon.

Answer 1

1. 1+4 = 5in^2

2. 1+6 = 7cm^2

3. 8+4 = 12ft^2

4. 2(3) = 6m^2

5. 16+8 = 24yd^2

6. 5 + 10 = 15mi^2

Explanation:

Each problem can be solved by just adding the areas of the individual simple shapes such as triangle and parallelogram.

Area of trigangle =
`(1)/(2)`*b*h

Area of parallelogram = b*h
