Question

Please help!! What is the area to this figure??

Answer 1

318

Explanation:

find area of the big triangle then split the remaining shape into a large rectangle and a smaller rectangle

Answer 2

318 mi²

Explanation:

Formulae

Area of a rectangle = width x length

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height

Divide the figure into 1 triangle and 2 rectangles (see attachment).

Area of Triangle 1 = 1/2 x (10 + 6 + (11 - 8)) x 22

= 1/2 x 19 x 22

= 209 mi²

Area of Rectangle 2 = 5 x (11 + 6)

= 85 mi²

Area of Rectangle 3 = 4 x 6

= 24 mi²

Total area = 209 + 85 + 24 = 318 mi²
