Question

Find the area of the shape provided

Answer 1

Answer:

$111m^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to break the shape up to rectangles to make it easier to solve.

bottom rectangle : 15 x 3 = 45m^2

Top rectangle : 12 x 3=36m^2

Middle rectangle : 12-3-3=6 (because we already solved the top and bottom part of it)

we need to work out the base so we do 15-5= 5cm

6 x 5 = 30m^2

add them all together

30+36+45=111m^2
