Question

Find the area of the irregular figure . ( Assume that all angles are right angles )

Answer 1

If you multiplied 2x3 you get the area of half of the whole figure. But to get the other portion I subtracted 4-3 and got 1, the I multiplied 5x1 and got 5. so the answer is 11in^2.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure, divide the proportion in such a way that we have two rectangles, then Area of one rectangle=$l{\times}b=2{\times}3=6 sq inches$

and area of the another triangle=$l{\times}b=5{\times}1=5 sq units$

Therefore, Area of the irregular figure= Area of rectangle 1 + arae of rectangle 2

=$6+5=11 sq inches$

Thus, area of the irregular figure= 11 sq inches.
