Answer 2

First, find the area of the rectangle and then find the area of the triangle and add the two areas together.

Answer 3

320

Answer 4

Not quite. How did you get that answer?

Answer 5

by doing what u said

Answer 6

Can you type your calculation?

Answer 7

16*24*8

Answer 8

That is not correct. First, you must find the area of the rectangle which would be...

Answer 9

16*24

Answer 10

Nope. The area of the rectangle would be length * width. The length of the rectangle is 8 and the width is 16

Answer 11

128

Answer 12

Yes. Now you must find the area of the triangle portion, which would be \[\frac{ 1 }{ 2} \]

Answer 13

64

Answer 14

Sorry. What I typed came out wrong. Put the 128 aside for now and focus on the triangle, whose area is 1/2 *b*h

Answer 15

so 64?

Answer 16

Not quite. The height of the triangle is 8. To find the base, you need to subtract 24 by 16.

Answer 17

can u draw a pic

Answer 18

Sure. It might take a minute though

Answer 19

kk

Answer 20

So the 24 refers to the entire length of the shape while the 16 only refers to the rectangle. To find the length of the triangle base, you need to subtract 24 -16.
