Question

Find the area of each figure. If necessary, use 3.14 for and round to the nearest hundred.

Answer 1

132 m²

Explanation:

Split the figure into 2 parts :

1. Area of Triangle
2. Area of Rectangle

Area (Triangle)

• A = 1/2bh
• A = 1/2 x (20 - 8 - 6) x (10 - 6)
• A = 1/2 x 6 x 4
• A = 3 x 4
• A = 12 m²

Area (Rectangle)

• A = bh
• A = 20 x 6
• A = 120 m²

Area (Figure)

• 12 + 120
• 132 m²
