Question

Need help with working perimeter and area please

Answer 1

Answer:

Area = 228 m²

Perimeter = 60 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure given shows a rectangle that has a cut triangular portion.

✔️Area of the figure = area of rectangle - area of the triangular cut portion

= L*W + ½*bh

Where,

L = 20 m

W = 12 m

b = 20 - (8 + 8) = 4 m

h = 6 m

Plug in the values

Area = 20*12 - ½*4*6

Area = 240 - 12

Area = 228 m²

✔️Perimeter = perimeter of rectangle - base of the triangular cut portion

= 2(L + W) - b

L = 20 m

W = 12 m

b = b = 20 - (8 + 8) = 4 m

Plug in the values

Perimeter = 2(20 + 12) - 4

= 2(32) - 4

= 64 - 4

Perimeter = 60 m
