This figure is made up of a rectangle and parallelogram.What is the area of this figure?Enter your answer in the box. Do not round any side lengths. units²
Question
Answer:
Given the coordinates of two points, P1 and P2, the distance formula between these two points is deduced.d = root ((x2-x1) ^ 2 + (y2-y1) ^ 2)
To find the area of the figure we must first find the area of the rectangle and add the area of the parallelogram.
rectangle area
A = (L) * (w)
L = root ((- 6-2) ^ 2 + (- 1-1) ^ 2) = 8.25
w = root ((- 6 - (- 5)) ^ 2 + (- 1 - (- 5)) ^ 2) = 4.12
A = (8.25) * (4.12) = 33.99
Parallelogram area
A = (b) * (h)
b = root ((3-3) ^ 2 + (3 - (- 3)) ^ 2) = 6
h = root ((3-2) ^ 2 + (3-3) ^ 2) = 1
A = (6) * (1) = 6
The total area is then
Atotal = 33.99 + 6 = 39.99 units ^ 2
Answer
the area of this figure is 39.99 units ^ 2
