Find the rectangle area
A = 8*4 = 32 in²
Find the height of trapezoid
8-4 = 4 in
Find the area of trapezoid
(5,3+8)*4/2 = 13,3*4/2 = 53,2/2 = 26,6 in²
Find the figure area
26,6+32 = 58,6 in²
Yes, this is a polynomial. It is an expression containing variables raised to a real number.
In this case, the variables are being raised to the power of one.
The degree of this polynomial, thus, is one.
