\bf \begin{array}{ccccccccc}
&&x_1&&y_1&&x_2&&y_2\\
%  (a,b)
&&(~ 9 &,& 2~) 
%  (c,d)
&&(~ 3 &,& -8~)
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope  = m
slope =  m\implies 
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{-8-2}{3-9}\implies \cfrac{-10}{-6}\implies \cfrac{5}{3}

What is the area of this figure?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

54 units squared

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to divide the shape into simpler shapes such as rectangles and triangles that you can easily find the area of. Then, add those areas together. I divided it into one rectangle and three triangles.

Rectangle 1: length=7 width=6          6(7)=42

Triangle 1: base=6 height=2          1/2(6)2=6

Triangle 2: base=3 height=2          1/2(3)2=3

Triangle 3: base=6 height=1          1/2(6)1=3

Area= R1+T1+T2+T3= 42+6+3+3= 54 units squared
