Answer: the perimeter is 40.1 feet
The area is 76 ft²
Step-by-step explanation:
The given shape contains a rectangle and a trapezoid.
The perimeter of a shape is the distance around the shape. Therefore, the perimeter of the given shape is
4 + 8 + 4 + 4.5 + 14 + 5.6 = 40.1 ft
The area of the rectangle is
8 × 4 = 32ft²
The formula for determining the area of a trapezoid is
Area = 1/2(a + b)h
Where a and b are the length of the opposite sides.
h represents the vertical height.
Area = 1/2(14 + 8)4
= 1/2 × 22 × 4 = 44ft²
Area of the shape is
32 + 44 = 76 ft²
