Question

Find the difference in area between a rectangle measuring 35 cm by 12 cm and a triangle whose base and height are 22 cm and 32 cm respectively.

Answer 1

Answer:

68 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of rectangle = l × b = 35 × 12 = 420 cm²

Area of triangle = 1/2 × base × altitude = 1/2 × 22 × 32= 352 cm²

Difference in area= Area of rectangle - Area of triangle

                             = 420 - 352 cm²

                             = 68 cm²
