I got 360 but that's incorrect
You need to find the area of the three rectangles and the two triangles.
Do I multiply each face by the height?
What did you consider as the height of the triangles?
That's where I run into a problem, I'm not sure how to find that
If you observe closely, it'll be 8 inches since the side of that rectangle will line up alongside the height of the triangle.
So area of the triangles will be: 0.5 x 15 x 8 Area of the rectangles will be: 17 x 9, 15 x 9 and 8 x 9.
0.5 x 15 x 8 = 80 17 x 9 = 153 15 x 9 = 135 8 x 9 = 72
so do I add all of them to get my answer? @Prathamesh_M
Yes and you add the triangle twice since there are two of them.
so 80 + 80 +153 +135 + 72?
Yes.
that gives me 520. So there's my answer?
