Question

Find the area if the figure, pls write calculations

Answer 1

Answer:

area = 40.8 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure consists of a rectangle and a triangle.

area of rectangle = 12 × 2.4 = 28.8 cm²

area of triangle = $\frac{1}{2}$ bh ( b is the base and h the height )

Here b = 2.4 and h = 18 - 12 = 6 , then

area = $\frac{1}{2}$ × 4 × 6 = 2 × 6 = 12 cm²

area of figure = 28.8 + 12 = 40.8 cm²
