Calculate the area of each composite figure.round to the nearest square unit, if necessary.
a)15mm, 8mm, 10mm 30mm
We do not know what the figures are to respond.
Find the area of the given figures 15mm 10mm 8 mm 30mm
Find the area of the given figures 15mm 10mm 8mm 30mm
Find the area of the given figures 15mm 8mm 10mm 30mm
To calculate the area of a composite figure, we need to break it down into simpler shapes and calculate the area of each shape individually. Let's break down this composite figure into separate shapes and calculate their areas.
First, let's identify the shapes in the composite figure:
1. Rectangle: 15mm x 8mm
2. Triangle: Base 10mm, Height 30mm
Now let's calculate the area of each shape:
1. Rectangle:
The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width.
Area of Rectangle = Length x Width = 15mm x 8mm = 120 square mm
2. Triangle:
The area of a triangle can be calculated by multiplying its base by its height and then dividing the result by 2.
Area of Triangle = (Base x Height) / 2 = (10mm x 30mm) / 2 = 300 square mm / 2 = 150 square mm
Finally, to find the total area of the composite figure, we add the areas of the individual shapes:
Total Area = Area of Rectangle + Area of Triangle = 120 square mm + 150 square mm = 270 square mm
So, the area of the given composite figure is 270 square mm.
