Question

Find the area of the polygon. Figure ABCDE is shown. A is at 6, 0. B is at negative 4, 5. C is at 2, 5. D is at 2, 9. E is at 6, 9. 41 square units 44 square units 52 square units 56 square units

Answer 1

This question is incomplete. The attached image was obtained online

Answer:

41 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at diagram that was attached, we can see that the Polygon s the combination of a square and a triangle.

In square CDEF we have:

The lengths of the side of the square= 4 units

Hence, the area of square is: length ²

Area of square= 4²

=16 square units

Also, in ΔBFA we have:

The base of the triangle is calculated as

=6 + 4= 10 units

height of the triangle is: FA= 5 units

The formula for Area of a triangle = 1/2 × Base × Height

Hence, we have area of ΔBFA as:

= 1/2 × 10 × 5

Area= 25 square units

The Area of the Polygon = Area of the square + Area of the triangle

16 square units + 25 square units

= 41 square units
