To find the area of the complex figure, we can break the figure down into smaller, more manageable pieces. Let's break the figure into two rectangles.
Rectangle 1:
- Length: 31 meters
- Width: 69 meters
Rectangle 2:
- Length: 12 meters
- Width: 23 meters
First, find the area of each rectangle:
Rectangle 1:
Area = Length × Width
Area = 31 meters × 69 meters
Area = 2139 square meters
Rectangle 2:
Area = Length × Width
Area = 12 meters × 23 meters
Area = 276 square meters
Now, add the areas of the two rectangles to find the total area of the complex figure:
Total Area = Area of Rectangle 1 + Area of Rectangle 2
Total Area = 2139 square meters + 276 square meters
Total Area = 2415 square meters
So, the area of the complex figure is 2415 square meters.
