Question

Find the area of this shape

Answer 1

The answer would be 390cm

Answer 2

Here's the solution,

Area of rectangle :

=》

`l * b`

=》

`23 * 12`

=》

`276 \: \: cm {}^(2)`

Area of trapezoid :

note : h = 18 - 12 = 6 cm

=》

`(1)/(2) * (a + b) * h`

=》

`(1)/(2) * (23 + 15) * 6`

=》

`38 * 3`

=》

`114 \: \: cm {}^(2)`

Area of whole figure (V) = sum of their Areas,

=》

`276 + 114`

=》

`390 \: \: cm {}^(2)`
