Answer: 60 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
OUTLINE:
1. Find the area of triangles
2. Find the area of rectangles
SOLVE:
#1 Area of Triangles
Formula: a=(1/2)bh
a=area
b=base
h=height
b=6 cm
h=4 cm
a=(1/2)bh
a=(1/2)(6)(4)
a=12 cm²
There are 2 triangles ⇒ 12×2=24 cm²
#2 Area of Rectangles
Formula: a=bh
b=base
h=height
b=6 cm
h=2 cm
a=bh=6×2=12 cm²
There are 3 rectangles ⇒ 12×3=36 cm²
Find the total surface area: 36+24=60 cm²
Hope this helps!! :)
