Question

Find the area of the figure!!! Pleaseee don’t give a big explain Atom i have exactly 17 minutes to get to 90 on ixl!

Answer 1

137 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the figure into a triangle and 3 rectangles (see attached diagram)

Formulae

• Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height
• Area of a rectangle = width x length

Triangle 1

⇒ area = 1/2 x (8 + 7 + 2 - 4 - 7) x 5

= 1/2 x 6 x 5

= 15 m²

Rectangle 2

⇒ area = 4 x (2 + 7 + 8)

= 4 x 17

= 68 m²

Rectangle 3

⇒ area = 2 x (7 + 8)

= 2 x 15

= 30 m²

Rectangle 4

⇒ area = 3 x 8

= 24 m²

Total area

⇒ Total area = triangle 1 + rectangle 2 + rectangle 3 + rectangle 4

= 15 + 68 + 30 + 24

= 137 m²

Answer 2

137 m²

Formula's:

• area of rectangle: length + width

• area of triangle: 1/2 * base * height

Step-by-step explanation:

⇒ area of rec + area of rec + area of rec + area of triangle

⇒ 2 * 4 + 7 * 6 + 8 * 9 + 1/2 * 6 * 5

⇒ 8 + 42 + 72 + 15

⇒ 137 m²
