Question

Find the area of this shape

Answer 1

Here's the solution,

Area of rectangle :

=》

$l \times b$

=》

$23 \times 12$

=》

$276 \: \: cm {}^{2}$

Area of trapezoid :

note : h = 18 - 12 = 6 cm

=》

$\dfrac{1}{2} \times (a + b) \times h$

=》

$\dfrac{1}{2} \times (23 + 15) \times 6$

=》

$38 \times 3$

=》

$114 \: \: cm {}^{2}$

Area of whole figure (V) = sum of their Areas,

=》

$276 + 114$

=》

$390 \: \: cm {}^{2}$

Answer 2

The answer would be 390cm
