Answer 1

14 square meters

Explanation:

the first part of this question can be to find the bases area

the base is 2 * 2 which is 4 square meters

then you find the area of the triangles

the length is 3 and the base is 2

then you multiply the amount of that by 1/2 and then by 4 because of the number of triangles there are

2 * 3 * 1/2 * 4 = 12

this is the area of the triangles added together

then you add 12 to 2 for the total

12 + 2 = 14 m^2
