He is simply showing you that you can split the image into shapes that you know how to solve, and therefore can use to solve the area of the object as a whole

anonymous · Answer

o ok so that is the answer?

anonymous · Answer

is it

australopithecus · Answer

Now you can simply solve this by finding the area of both box's which is h*w and adding them together. I'm sure you can find another way of splitting these

australopithecus · Answer

so you would just do

Area of box 1 = Height*Width

Area of box 2 = Height*Width


Now just go

Area of box 1 + Area of Box 2 = Area of entire Object
