Answer 1

Answer:

${84mm}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of square= l×l

Area of square= 6mm × 6mn

Area if square = 36 mm²

Area of triangle 1= ½b ×h

Area of triangle 1= ½ (6mm)(8mm)

Area of triangle 1 = 24 mm²

Area of triangle 2 is the same as area of traingle 1 because they have the same base and hight

: . area of triangles is 48mm²

Area of the figure= Area of square + Area of triangles

A of figure = 36+48

A of figure = 84 mm²

Option 2

Use trapezium formula

Area of trapezium= (a+b)/2 * h

a=6 mm (base)

b=8+6=14 mm (Base)

h= 6mm (height)

$area \: of \: trapezium = ( \frac{6 + 14}{2} )(6) \\ = 60mm ^{2}$

Therefore the area of triangle= 24mm² as calculated in option 1

Area of the figure= Area of trapezium +Area of triangle

Area of figure = 60+24

= 84 mm²
