Question

What is the area of Janes backyard *ANSWER FAST*

Answer 1

1025 ft^2

Explanation:

There are 2 rectangles to solve. A=wl

Rectangle 1. w = 55 ft l = 15 ft = A=825

Rectangle 2. w = 20 ft l = 27-15= 12 = 240

Add 240 ft + 825 ft = 1025 ft^2

Answer 2

960

Explanation:

First, divide the complex figure into different shapes. If this is easier, then you can divide the figure into 27 times 20 and 12 times 35.

Do 27 times 20 which equals 540.

Then add 540 to 12 times 35

= 540 + 420

= 960 feet squared

So the answer is 960 feet squared.
