Answer:
(a) cannot be determined
(b) 44 cm^2
(c) 87 m^2
(d) 180 m^2
(e) 132 m^2
Explanation:
(a) missing a horizontal dimension
__
(b) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the lower-left cutout is ...
(8 cm)(7 cm) -(3 cm)(4 cm) = (56 -12) cm^2 = 44 cm^2
__
(c) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the center cutout is ...
(13 m)(7 m) -(4 m)(1 m) = (91 -4) m^2 = 87 m^2
__
(d) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the two cutouts is ...
(20 m)(25 m) -(16 m)(20 m) = (20 m)(25 -16) m = (20 m)(9 m) = 180 m^2
__
(e) The difference between the bounding rectangle and the two cutouts is ...
(14 m)(12 m) -(12 m)(3 m) = (12 m)(14 -3) m = (12 m)(11 m) = 132 m^2
