Question

The figure has been decomposed into three rectangles as shown.

A figure is decomposed into 3 rectangles. The rectangles are 4 inches by 2 inches, 6.5 inches by 2 inches, and 4 inches by 1.5 inches.

Find the area of each piece of the composite figure.

The area of the top rectangle is

A = 4 in.(2 in.) = 8 in2.

The area of the middle rectangle is

A = 2 in.(
in.) =
in2.
The area of the bottom rectangle is

A = 4 in.(
in.) =
in2.
The total area of the figure is
in2.
