Use these formulas to help solve the problem Area of a triangle A=1/2bh
Area of a rectangle A=lw
The front view of a house is composed of a rectangle and a rectangle And the picture shows The front view of the house What is the area of the front of the house 24 feet for the base 10 feet for the he and the width is 20 feet
First, calculate the area of the triangle at the top of the house:
A_triangle = 1/2 * base * height
A_triangle = 1/2 * 24 * 10
A_triangle = 120 square feet
Next, calculate the area of the rectangle at the bottom of the house:
A_rectangle = length * width
A_rectangle = 24 * 20
A_rectangle = 480 square feet
Finally, add the areas of the triangle and rectangle together to find the total area of the front of the house:
Total area = A_triangle + A_rectangle
Total area = 120 + 480
Total area = 600 square feet
Therefore, the area of the front of the house is 600 square feet.
