Question

What is the area of this compound figure ?

Answer 1

Is 44yd^2 do you get it?

Answer 2

The area for the triangle is 32.
The area for the rectangle is 12.

To find answer for triangle

Multiply the length x width. Which are the two 8's. Then divide by 2 because it's half a triangle.

8 x 8 divided by 2 = 32

To find answer for rectangle

Multiply length x higher which is the 6 and 2.

6 x 2 ( no division necessary ) = 12
