Question

Wayne is going to paint the side of the house shown in the diagram. What is the area that will be painted? Please explain how u found your answer

Answer 1

First find the area of the rectangle  by multiplying the length and width of the rectangle, so 12 x25=300. Then find the area of the triangle, which is length x height/ 2. So 8 x 25=200/2=100. Then add the two answers together to get 400.
