Question

area of composite figures worksheet #1 (don’t mind the pen it’s a mistake)

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that,

Rectangular room is of the dimension 12 feet by 18 feet

To find the number of square feet of carpet needed.

Explanation:

Area of the rectangle is,

$\text{ length}\times\text{ breadth}$

Area of the rectangular room is,

$12\times18$$=270\text{ ft}^2$

Area of the rectangular room is 270 square feet.

Therefore, 270 square feet of carpet are needed to cover the room.

we know that,

$1\text{ yard }=3\text{ feet}$

Using this conversion we get,

$270\text{ ft}^2=270(\frac{1}{3}\text{ yd})^2$
