Answer:
Answer: 40 sq. in.
Step-by-step explanation:
First we gotta find the area of triangle part of the shape, we can see the left side of the shape is 5 in. , so we subtract the 3 from 5 which gives 2 the height of the triangle.
Now, we find the length for the base of the triangle, the top part of the shape is 7 in. , so we subtract 7 from 12 which gives us 5 in. as the base
Now, we find the area of the triangle:
A = b × h
A = ( × 5 in,) × 2 in
A = 5 sq. in.
Now we find the area for the rectangle:
A = b × h
A = 5 x 7
A = 35 sq. in
Finally, we add the areas together
35 sq. in. + 5 sq. in. = 40 sq. in.
We get our answer 40 sq. in,
