Question

Find the area of this shape

please

Answer 1

Area of the right angled triangle:-

= height × base ÷ 2

= 4 cm × 6 cm ÷ 2

= 4 cm × 3 cm

= 12 cm²

Area of the rectangle:-

= length × breadth

= 6 cm × 3 cm

= 18 cm²

Area of the figure:-

= 12 cm² + 18 cm²

= 30 cm²

Answer 2

`Area \:of\: rectangle = l * b \\ = 3 * 6 \\ = 18 {cm}^(2)`

`Area\: of\: triangle = (ab)/(2) \\ = (4 * 6)/(2) \\ = 12 {cm}^(2)`

Total area = 12 + 18 = 30cm²
