Question

Three paintings are shaped like an 8-foot square a 7-foot by 4-foot rectangle and a triangle with 6-foot base and height of 7 feet. If those paintings are hung together on the outside of the building how much of the building s wall they cover together ?

Answer 1

Answer:

113 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the total area covered can be determined by adding the area of the rectangle, triangle and square together

Area of a square = length² = 8² = 64 ft²

Area of a rectangle = length x width = 7 x 4 = 28 ft²

Area of a triangle = 1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 6 x 7 = 21 ft²

64 + 28 + 21 = 113 ft²
