Given:
Compound shape
To find:
The area of the compound shape.
Solution:
The compound shape is splitted into two parallelograms.
<u>Bottom parallelogram:</u>
Base = 7.5 cm
Height = 5 cm
Area of the parallelogram = base × height
= 7.5 × 5
= 37.5 cm²
The area of the Bottom parallelogram 37.5 cm².
<u>Top parallelogram:</u>
Base = 7.5 cm
Height = 4.5 cm
Area of the parallelogram = base × height
= 7.5 × 4.5
= 33.75 cm²
The area of the top parallelogram 33.75 cm².
Compound shape = 37.5 + 33.75
= 71.25 cm²
The area of the compound shape is 71.25 cm².
0.05 rounded to the nearest whole number is 0.
Hope this helps~
