Answer:
3rd option - 14 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
First we know that the square's area will be 2×2 = 4
To calculate the area of a triangle we know the vertical height is 2.5 and the base length is 2 so we can use the formula b×h/2 to give the area of one triangle:
2.5×2 = 5
5÷2 = 2.5
So the area of 1 triangle is 2.5 m²
Since there are 4 triangles we multiply the area of 1 traingle by 4:
2.5×4 = 10
We add the area of the 4 triangles to the area of the square to give our final answer of :
10 + 4 = 14
14 m²
