how do you find the area of a figure the problem is listed below 25ft 10ft 10ft 40ft I am new to this and right about nowI am lost in the sauce.
depends on the figure..what firgure is it
what is the figure
the figure looks like the letter L with 25ft underneath and 40ft along the backside and 10ft at the foot and another 10ft down the front of the leg. I hope this helps.
Find the areas of each of the two sections of the "L." Then add them together.

To find the area of a figure, we need to know the shape of the figure. From the given dimensions (25ft, 10ft, 10ft, 40ft), it is not clear what type of figure you are referring to. However, I can provide an explanation for finding the area of some common shapes, and you can determine which shape matches your given dimensions.
1. Rectangle: If the figure is a rectangle, you can find the area by using the formula: Area = Length x Width. In this case, you would have two sides that are 10ft long and two sides that are 25ft long. You can choose any pair of equal sides as the length and width, so let's assume the length is 25ft and the width is 10ft. Then the area would be: Area = 25ft x 10ft = 250 square feet.
2. Square: If the figure is a square, you can find the area by multiplying one side by itself. Since all sides of a square are equal, you can choose any side length for the calculation. Let's assume the side length is 10ft. In this case, the area would be: Area = 10ft x 10ft = 100 square feet.
3. Triangle: If the figure is a triangle, we need more information than just the given lengths of the sides. The area of a triangle can be calculated using the formula: Area = (base x height) / 2. The base and height must be perpendicular to each other within the triangle. If you have additional information about the triangle, such as the length of the perpendicular height, you can use that to calculate the area.
4. Other shapes: If the figure is not a rectangle, square, or triangle, then we would need further details about its shape to determine the appropriate method for finding the area. Please provide any additional information or specify the shape for a more accurate answer.
Remember, understanding the shape of the figure is crucial in determining the correct method to find its area.
