OpenStudy (studygurl14):

first step. find teh area of the square part. Which is c times d.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

255

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

correct. now find teh area of teh tringle, which remember is 1/2 x base x height (b is base, a is hieght)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

25*11 = 275

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

right, but don't forget to divide by 2, since it is a triangle

OpenStudy (anonymous):

275 / 2 = 137.5

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

right. now add that to 255

OpenStudy (studygurl14):

that will be your answer

OpenStudy (anonymous):
