Pls help How do u find the area of this figure
2 answers:
To find this, you have to cut the figure into familiar shapes. In this case, you can cut it into two rectangles. When you cut it, there is a missing measurement, which is the length for the small rectangle. To find that, you subtract the other two lengths given, which is 8 and 6, and thats the length for the small rectangle. Then you do l•w for both shapes.
Answer:
The answer is 52 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
You can't find the area of it all at once so you must cut it in have to have two shapes like in the picture above and then name them A and B
Now for the shapes we must use the formula Area= Lentgh times Breath
Shape A: A= L x B
8 x 6 = 48 in²
Shape B : A= L x B
2 x 2= 4 in²
now add 48 plus 4 = 52 in²
Hope this helps!

We know that the width of the garden is = feet = 6.75 feet
and Perimeter of the garden is = 37.5 feet
Also, we know that for a rectangular space perimeter = 2 * (l + w)
⇒ 37.5 = 2 * (l + 6.75)
⇒ 37.5 = 13.5 + 2*l
⇒ 24 = 2*l
⇒ l = 12 feet
Now, we need to determine how much square feet of mulch is required, hence we need to calculate the area of the garden
Area = l * w
⇒ Area = 12 * 6.75
⇒ Area = 81 square feet
Hence, they require 81 square feet of mulch
