Question

What is area of this shape

Answer 1

Answer:

132 ft squared

Step-by-step explanation:

One way is to divide the shape into a rectangle and a triangle, by drawing a vertical line.

This gives a rectangle that is 9 by 11, so has area 99.

The triangle has a base of 11 and height of 15 - 9 = 6.

So the area of the triangle = 1/2 x b x h = 1/2 x 11 x 6 = 33

So the total area is 99 + 33 = 132.
