You must pick one This figure is composed of a parallelogram and a trapezoid.
32 centimeters. 26 centimeters. 16 centimeters. 40 centimeters.
What is the area of the figure in square centimeters?
1,056 cm2
1,360 cm2
944 cm2
528 cm2
...
The area of the figure is 1,360 cm2.
To calculate the area, we need to find the area of the parallelogram and the trapezoid separately and then add them together:
Area of the parallelogram = base x height = 32 cm x 26 cm = 832 cm2
Area of the trapezoid = (sum of the bases / 2) x height = ((32 cm + 16 cm) / 2) x 26 cm = 24 cm x 26 cm = 624 cm2
Total area = 832 cm2 + 624 cm2 = 1,456 cm2
