The area of a triangle is given by the formula
((base)(height))/(2).

The first triangle has 4 units in base and 2 in height, in the formula is


((4)(2))/(2) = 4

The second triangle has 2 units in base and 2 in height, in the formula is


((2)(2))/(2) = 2

The area of a square is given by the formula base x height = 2 x 2 = 4.

The sum of the areas is 10.
