Answer 1

The diagram shows a figure made up of a rectangle and a right angled triangle.

The area of each segment is derived as follows;

`\begin{gathered} \text{Area of rectangle=L x W} \\ \text{Area}=20*18 \\ \text{Area}=360ft^2 \\ \text{Area of tr}iangle=(1)/(2)bh \\ \text{Area}=(1)/(2)*9*20 \\ \text{Area}=90ft^2 \end{gathered}`

The area of the triangular segment is 90 square feet

The answer choices only have 90 square feet among the choices available.
