Question

Quadrilateral MNPQ is shown on the grid below.

Answer 1

Answer:

42 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached

Area of the diagram = Area of the triangle + Area of rectangle

Area of rectangle = Length * Width

Area of rectangle = 3 * 6

Area of rectangle = 18 square units

Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Get the base of the tringle using the pythagoras theorem;

b^2 = 10^2-6^2

b^2 = 100 - 36

b^2 = 64

b = 8units

height = 6 units

Area of the triangle = 1/2 * 8 * 6

Area of the triangle = 48/2

Area of the triangle  = 24 square units

Area of the figure = 18+24

Area of the figure = 42 square units
