Question

What is the area of this figure? Please help

Answer 1

117 yd^2.

Explanation:

WE can split this up into 1 large triangle and 2 rectangles,

Area triangle= 1/2 * (9-2) * (7 + 2 + 4+5) = 1/2*7*18 = 63 yd^2.

Area of 1 rectangle = 2 * (2+4+5) = 22 yd^2.

Area of the other rectangle = 4 * 8 = 32 yd^2.

Total area = 63 + 22 + 32

= 117 td^2.

Answer 2

117 yd²

Explanation:

Area of figure :

• Area (triangle) + Area (vertical rectangle) + Area (horizontal rectangle)
• (1/2 x 18 x 7) + (11 x 2) + (8 x 4)
• 63 + 22 + 32
• 85 + 32
• 117 yd²
