Answer:
The answer to your question is 13 u²
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the small triangle is surrounded by right triangles so we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the lengths of the small triangle
AD² = 3² + 2²
Simplify
AD² = 9 + 4
AD² = 13
AD =
Find the area of the square
Area = side x side
Area = AD x AD
Area =
Area = 13 u²
