To find the total area of the stained glass window hanging, we need to find the area of the rectangle and the area of the triangle separately, then add them together.
Area of rectangle = base x height
Area of rectangle = 5 in x 10 in
Area of rectangle = 50 in^2
Area of triangle = 0.5 x base x height
Area of triangle = 0.5 x 5 in x 18 in
Area of triangle = 45 in^2
Total area = area of rectangle + area of triangle
Total area = 50 in^2 + 45 in^2
Total area = 95 in^2
Therefore, the area of the stained glass window hanging is 95 in^2.
Correct Response:
95 in.2
