Question

What is the area of this figure?

Answer 1

Answer:

97 square miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us divide this figure into rectangles, each of set dimensions;

$Dimensions of Rectangle A - Height ; 2 mi, Length ; 9 mi\\Area of Rectangle A - Height * Length = 2 mi * 9 mi = 18 square miles,\\\\Dimensions of Rectangle B - Height ; 2 mi + 5 mi = 7 mi, Length ; 5 mi\\Area of Rectangle B - Height * Length = 7 mi * 5 mi = 35 square miles,\\\\Dimensions of Rectangle C - Height ; 4 mi + 5 mi + 2 mi = 11 mi, Length ; 4 mi,\\Area of Rectangle C - Height * Length = 11 mi * 4 mi = 44 square miles,\\\\Area of Figure = 18 + 35 + 44 = 97 square miles$

Solution; 97 square miles
