Find the area of the irregular figure.

Answer:
The area of the irregular figure is 366 cm sq.
Step-by-step explanation:
This irregular figure is made of 1 Rectangle + 1 right Triangle
Area of the Rectangle:
Length of the rectangle = 21 cm,
Width of the rectangle = 14 cm
AREA of Rectangle = LENGTH x WIDTH
= 21 cm x 14 cm = 294 sq cm
⇒Area of the Rectangle = 294 sq cm ..... (1)
Area of the Right Triangle:
Base of the rectangle = 16 cm,
Height of the rectangle = 21 cm - 12 cm = 9 cm
AREA of Right Triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2} \times B \times H[/tex]
[tex]= \frac{1}{2} \times 16 \times 9 = 72[/tex]
⇒Area of the Right Triangle = 72 sq cm ..... (2)
Now, area of the irregular figure = Area of the( Rectangle +Right Triangle)
= 294 sq cm + 72 sq cm = 366 cm sq
Hence, the area of the irregular figure is 366 cm sq.
Answer:
366 sq. ft
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we have to find the area of the triangle. To do this we have to find the height of the triangle which can be done by subtracting 12 from 21 to get 9. Then we multiply 16 by 9 to get 144 and divide it by 2 to get 72. Now we must find the area of the rectangle. To do this we have to multiply 14 and 21 to get 294. Now we have to add the values together to get 366.
