Answer 1

Answer:

Part a: 144

Part B: 1.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A: We need to find the area of the figure.

The figure is composed of a rectangle and a triangle.

Let find the area of the rectangle

• Area of rectangle is length x width
• The length is 8 ft( the 12 represent the length of the full side with the triangle on it).
• The width is 16.
• So
• $16 \times 8 = 132$
• is the area of the rectangle.

1. Let find the area of the triangle
2. Area of triangle is base x height/2.
3. The base is 6 becuase that side measures 16 and we already know the side of one part of it. 16-10=6
4. The height is 4 because the same reason above.
5. So
6. $\frac{6 \times 4}{2} = 12$
7. Add up both areas
8. $132 + 12 = 144$

The area is 144 sq ft

Part B: Divide 144 by 100.

$\frac{144}{100} = 1.44$

The answer is 1.44
