Answer 1

Answer: 241.5 ft²

Explanation:

I divided the image into 3 rectangles and 1 triangle:

top rectangle: length = 17, height = 6 --> A = 17 x 6 = 102

middle rectangle: length = 9, height = 9 --> A = 9 x 9 = 81

bottom rectangle: length = 6, height = 8 --> A = 6 x 8 = 48

triangle: base = 3, height = 7 --> A = (3 x 7)/2 = 10.5

Total = 241.5

Answer 2

Explanation:

area =area of rectangle 1 +area of rectangle 2 + area of rectangle 3 + area of triangle

= 17*6 + 9*9 + 8*6 + (1/2) * 3*7

= 102 + 81 + 48 + 10.5

= 241.5 sq . ft
