Answer 1

Answer:

A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of triangle is the length*width/2 => 4*4/2=8

For the 2nd triangle, we can separate it into two right triangles by cutting it down the middle. We can find the width of one triangle by taking the base of the first one we worked with and divide it by 2. 4/2 is 2. Multiply this by 3 to get the area, and divide by 2 again. 2*3/2=3. 3

So our answer is 8+3+3=14.

Answer 2

This quadrilateral is separated into two triangles.

$\sf area \ of \ triangle = \dfrac{1}{2} * base * height$

$\hookrightarrow \sf \dfrac{1}{2} * 4 * 4 +\dfrac{1}{2} *4 * 3$

$\hookrightarrow \sf14 \ cm^2$
