Question

PLS HELP I have no idea what to do Find the area of the figure. (Sides meet at right angles.)

Answer 1

Answer:

56m²

Step-by-step explanation:

separate shape into 2 shapes (i did 1 rectangle at top and 1 square at bottom.

find area separately so for rectangle, it would be 4x10 = 40m²

square = 4x4 = 16m²

then add together areas

16 + 40 = 56m²

Answer 2

Answer:

The total area is 56m²

Step-by-step explanation:

First divide the figure into two different parts; now we have a square and a rectangle. The square has a height of 4 and width of 4 so multiply both numbers to get your area. The rectangle has a height of 4 and an unknown width, with the information we have we know the width of the rectangle has at least 3m² on one side and 3m² on the other. Where we divided the figures we   see the bottom width of the square is 4 which is the missing length to complete the rectangles width. Add 3 plus 3 plus 4 and you have your width. Since now we know that the width of the rectangle is 10 we can use the formula to get the area: 10 times 4 equals 40 the area of the rectangle is 40m².

Area of square: 16m²

Area of rectangle: 40m²

Add the areas of both shapes and that makes the area of the shape previously shown.

The total area is 56m²
