AREA / (cm , m)

Example 2 / 2














Calculate the area in m, of whole diagram . [ 3 marks]
, m . [ 3 ]

Solution /

Calculate the area of rectangle.
.
Calculate the area of right angle triangle.
.
Add /

Area Rectangle / = 12 m x 6 m
= 72 m

Area right angle triangle / = 8 m x 6 m
2

= 48 m
2
= 24 m

Area of Whole Diagram = Area of rectangle + Area of Triangle
+

= 72 m + 24 m
= 96 m

8 m
9 m
6 m
12 m
