Answer:
The total area being covered is 3,528 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Mathematically, we can deduce the shape of the drawer using the dimensions.
With the dimensions given, we can infer that the drawer is shaped like a match box which thus is in the shape of a cuboid.
We can then proceed to find the area of the cuboid.
Mathematically, the area of a cuboid can be calculated as;
2(lb + lh + bh)
Kindly note we need to have a uniform unit before we proceed to calculate the area.
Mathematically, 1 yard is 36 inches
So the sides of the drawer measures 36 inches by 29 inches by 9 inches
Thus, the area is thus;
2( 29(9) + 36(29) + 9(36))
= 2(261 + 1044 + 324)
= 2(1629)
So the area of the drawer is 3,528 square inches
