Find the area of the figure at the right in square feet. (image attached)

40.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

*First we’ll split the shape into multiple smaller ones. The two ends make separate triangles while the middle makes a rectangle. From there you can solve for their areas.

*Each triangle is the same size, so when solving them, the area of one can just be duplicated. To find the height of each triangle, we take the total base of 8 ft and subtract the top 5.5 ft to get 2.5 ft. After that you’ll divide by 2 (for each triangle) so the height of each one is 1.25 ft.

Triangle:

A = 1/2bh

A = 1/2 (6) (1.25)

A = 3.75 ft²

Both triangles:

A = 3.75 (2)

A = 7.5 ft²

Rectangle:

A = lh

A = 5.5 (6)

A = 33 ft²

Total:

A = 7.5 + 33

A = 40.5 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape can be broken down into 2 identical triangles and one rectangle.

Area of 2 triangles= 2(1/2×base×height)

= 2(1/2×6×2.5) = 15ft²

Area of Rectangle = length × breadth

= 6 × 5.5 = 33ft²

Area of figure = Area of 2 triangles + Area of Rectangle

= (15 + 33) ft² = 48ft²

i dont know and i dont care for math bc it is a stupied subject
