1 answer

To find the total area of the three rectangles, you simply add the areas together:

  • Area of Rectangle 1: 40 cm²
  • Area of Rectangle 2: 24 cm²
  • Area of Rectangle 3: 24 cm²

Now, perform the addition:

\[ \text{Total Area} = 40 , \text{cm}² + 24 , \text{cm}² + 24 , \text{cm}² \]

Calculating this gives:

\[ \text{Total Area} = 40 + 24 + 24 = 88 , \text{cm}² \]

So, the total area of the shape is 88 cm².
