How do i find the area for number 4?
2 answers:
You can solve this in two different ways. In both ways, however, use the formula for the area of a square/rectangle. The formula is:
Area = Length x Width
A = L x W
To solve, divide the shape given into two rectangles. Then, find the areas of the two different rectangles and add them
<h3>Answer: 41 cm^2</h3>
Explanation:
Form a horizontal line as shown below (see attached image). This forms 2 separate smaller rectangles
- The bottom rectangle has area of 4*8 = 32 cm^2
- The top rectangle has area of 3*3 = 9 cm^2
The total area is therefore 32+9 = 41 cm^2
You can say "square cm" or "sq cm" in place of the "cm^2".
