Question

What is the area of the polygon shown??????

Answer 1

Somehow, i calculated it into 201 cm2 or 202 cm2 you must choose wisely… i used an calculator and area calculator lol

Answer 2

If we look at this polygon, we can split this into two triangles (shown in the image I attached below)

Formula for area of a triangle;

A = BH x 1/2

Where 'b' represents the base, and 'h' defines is the height.

Plug in values;

A = 40(5) x 1/2

A = 200 x 1/2

A = 200/2

A = 100, since there are double of these triangles,

100 x 2

= 200 cm2
