To find the area of a complex shape:

⇒ must split into simpler shapes

  • a rectangle of 8m by 7m
  • a rectangle of 2m by 8 m

Now let's find:

  • Area of a rectangle of 8m by 7m


Area=8*7=56m^2

  • Area of a rectangle of 2m by 8m


Area = 2 * 8 = 16m^2

Total Area = 56 + 16 = 72 m²

Answer: 72 m²

Hope that helps!
