Question

Find the area of the figure.

Answer 1

The area of the figure will be 60 feet square

Answer 2

60 square feet

Explanation:

Area of figure = area of rectangle + area of triangle

Rectangle:

Length = 10 ft

Width = 4 ft

Area = length * width

= 10 * 4

= 40 ft²

Triangle:

Base b = 12 - 4 = 8 ft

Height h = 10 - 5 = 5 ft

`Area=(bh)/(2)\\\\=(8*5)/(2)\\\\=4*5`

= 20 ft²

Area of the figure = 40 + 20 = 60 square feet
