Answer:
Option A. one rectangle and two triangles
Option E. one triangle and one trapezoid
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
we know that
The area of the polygon can be decomposed into one rectangle and two triangles
see the attached figure N 1
therefore
Te area of the composite figure is equal to the area of one rectangle plus the area of two triangles
so
[tex]A=(8)(4)+2[\frac{1}{2}((8)(4)]=32+32=64\ yd^2[/tex]
step 2
we know that
The area of the polygon can be decomposed into one triangle and one trapezoid
see the attached figure N 2
therefore
Te area of the composite figure is equal to the area of one triangle plus the area of one trapezoid
so
[tex]A=\frac{1}{2}(8)(4)+\frac{1}{2}((4+8)(8)=16+48=64\ yd^2[/tex]
