Find the area of the figure. Explain your reasoning.

Answer:
Separate it into smaller figures.
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure can be separated into a triangle on the top, and 2 trapezoids on the middle and the bottom.
The area of the triangle is bh/2, which is (4 x 6)/2, which is 12.
The area of the trapezoid in the middle is .5(b1+b2)h, which is .5(6+4)3, which is 15.
The area of the trapezoid on the bottom is .5(6+5)2, which is 11.
Now, add them to get 12+11+15 which is 38.
Answer: Not sure I have this problem too and i’m trying to figure it out.
Step-by-step explanation:
It’s not 38. There is another two other triangles and a rectangle, along with a square. The triangles formula is a=bxh/2 and the parallelogram or rectangles formula is bxh.
Once your done, you add all them together.
The two other triangles are in the middle in the little corner, and the other one in the bottom left corner.
