The top horizontal edge of the rectangle measures 17 centimeters, the left vertical edge of the rectangle measures 22 centimeters, and the bottom horizontal edge measures 17 centimeters. The left vertical leg is on the right edge of the rectangle, with v
Calculate the area of the composite figure, which is not
a rectangle.
Answer:
Area of rectangle = 17 cm x 22 cm = 374 cm^2
Area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height
Height of triangle = 17 cm
Base of triangle = 22 cm
Area of triangle = 1/2 x 22 cm x 17 cm = 187 cm^2
Total area = 374 cm^2 + 187 cm^2 = 561 cm^2
