Area of the fig is 44 sq cm. Option A.
Step-by-step explanation:
The given fig consists of two fig: rectangle and right angle triangle.
Base (b) of the triangle = 8 cm
Height (h) of the triangle = 4 cm
Length (l) of the rectangle = 2 cm
Width (w) of the rectangle = 10 cm
To find the area of the figure.
Formula
Area of the fig = area of the rectangle + area of the triangle
Area of the rectangle = l× w
Area of the triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×b×h
Now,
Area of the rectangle = 10×2 sq cm = 20 sq cm
Area of the triangle = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]×8×6 sq cm = 24 sq cm
Hence,
Area of the fig = 20+24 sq cm = 44 sq cm
