The answer to the question is <span>70.6179775281. which also can be converted to 71.</span>
Answer and explanation:
Surface area of a rectangle = length * width
Surface area of a square = a² where a is length of a side
To find total surface area of the the five pieces of paper, we add up all the areas of all the shapes
Given that length of rectangle =3.5
And width = 2
Area of rectangle =3.5*2=7
Area of 3 rectangles given they are all equal = 7*3=21
Since width of rectangle equal to width of square and all sides of square are equal
Area of square = 2 *2 =4
Area of the two squares =4*2=8
Total surface area of the five plane shapes = 21+8= 29
