Question

What is the area of this shape?

Answer 1

A = 235 cm²

Explanation:

The figure is composed of 2 rectangles.

main rectangle has dimensions length = 20 cm , breadth = 9 cm

The attached rectangle , on top has dimensions

length = 11 cm , breadth = 14 - 9 = 5 cm

Total area (A) is the sum of the areas of the 2 rectangles

A = (20 × 9) + (11 × 5) = 180 + 55 = 235 cm²

Answer 2

235 cm^2

Explanation:

First you should divide this shape into to rectangles or squares. Then you can easily find the area.

20-11=9

We have a rectangle and a square.

(11*14) + (9*9)
