Answer :
- area of the figure = 25 sq. units
Solution :
area of a triangle = 1/2*base*height
base = 4 units
height = 5 units
thus,
- area = 1/2*4*5 units^2
- area = 10 units^2
area of a rec = width*length
width = 3 units
length = 5 units
- area = 3*5 units^2
- area = 15 units^2
area of the figure = area of ∆ + area of rec
- area (figure) = ( 10 + 15 ) sq. units
- area (figure) = 25 sq. units
