Question

Whats the area and perimeter to the shape below?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Area of white square = side *side = 8 * 8 = 64 sq.mm

Area of 4 white square = 4 * 64 = 256 sq.mm

 compound shape

length = 3 cm = 30 mm

Width = 2 cm = 20 mm

Area of compound shape = length *width = 30 * 20 = 600 sq.mm

Area of the shaded part of the compound shape =

                        Area of compound shape - Area of 4 white square

= 600 - 256

= 344 sq.mm

b) Perimeter of compound shape = 2*(length + width)

     = 2*(30 +20)

      = 2* 50

      = 100 mm
