Question

Mr. Johnson needs to determine how many square meters of grass they need to buy for their yard.

Answer 1

Answer:

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = 34 meter²

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide given shape into rectangle and trapezium

Given:

Width of rectangle = 2 m

Length of rectangle = 5 m

Height of parallelogram = 9 - 5 = 4 m

Base of parallelogram = 10 m

Opposite site of parallelogram = 2 m

Find:

Amount of grass needed (In square meter)

Computation:

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = Area of rectangle + Area of parallelogram

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = (l x b) + (1/2)(sum of parallelogram)(height)

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = (5 x 2) + (1/2)(2 + 10)(4)

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = 10 + (1/2)(12)(4)

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = 10 + 24

Amount of grass needed (In square meter) = 34 meter²
