find the area of each of the following figures, given that all measurements are in centimeters.
Answers
Length of rectangle = 16cm
Breadth of rectangle= 10cm
Area of rectangle = Length x Breadth
= 16cm × 10cm
= 160cm²
Length of second rectangle =24cm‐10cm = 14cm
Breadth of second rectangle = 6cm
Area of rectangle = Length × Breadth
= 14cm× 6cm
= 84cm²
Base of triangle = 5cm
Height of triangle = 6cm
Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × height
=1/2× 5cm × 6cm
= 15cm²
Base of second triangle =10cm
Height of second triangle = 5cm
Area of second triangle =1/2 × base ×
height
= 1/2 × 10cm × 5cm
= 25cm²
Area of the figure = 160cm² + 84cm²+ 15cm2+ 25cm²
= 284cm²
