Question

Find the area. the figure is not drawn to scale.

Answer 1

First step - find the area of rectangle
Area of rectangle =LxB =13X9= Ans of area of rectangle
Step 2 - find the area of triangle :
Area of triangle =1/2 xbxh = 1/2 x (13-8) x 11 = Ans of area of triangle

Last step - add the area of triangle and area of rectangle = your answer

Answer 2

131.5

Explanation:

To find the area of the rectangle, we multiply the base and the height.

In this case, the base is 8 and the height is 13 I think. ( Your picture cuts it off very poorly)

8 x 13 = 104

Now, we need to find the area of the triangle. It is the same equation as the rectangle but we divide the result by 2.

11 * 5 = 55

55/2 = 27.5

27.5 + 104 = 131.5

If it's wrong, it's probably because of the picture. I can't tell what the height is of the rectangle, because it's certainly not 3.
