Answer 1

Your answer would be 45 centimeters ^2

Answer 2

Answer:

45 centimeters squared (45 square centimeters - same thing)

Explanation:

First we need the area of each shape

To find the area of a right triangle we multiply the length of the legs and then divide by 2 - ab/2

Triangle 1: 6 centimeters squared

Triangle 2: 9 centimeters squared

To find the area of a rectangle you multiply the length by the width - lw

Rectangle: 30 centimeters squared

Now we add the values together:

6 + 9 + 30 = 45 centimeters squared

That is my answer, if you need anything else or more clarification I will edit this :)
