Question

Find the area and perimeter

Answer 1

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

Answer 2

Answer:

Perimeter = 40.1 ft.

Area = 76 ft^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the exterior sides.

The perimeter = 4 + 8 + 4 + 4.5 + 14 + 5.6

= 40.1.

The area = the area of rectangle + area of the trapezoid

= 8 * 4 + (8 + 14) * 4  / 2

= 32 + 44

= 76.
