The area of the right arrow can be calculated by finding the area of the rectangle and the triangle separately and then adding them together.
Area of the rectangle = length x width
Area of the rectangle = 4 x 2 = 8
Area of the triangle = 0.5 x base x height
Base of the triangle = width of rectangle + 2 + 2 = 6
Height of the triangle = 5
Area of the triangle = 0.5 x 6 x 5 = 15
Total area of the right arrow = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle
Total area = 8 + 15 = 23
Therefore, the total area of the right arrow is 23 units.
8.Use the image to answer the question.
An illustration shows an outline of a right arrow consisting of a rectangle and a triangular head to its right. The length of the rectangle is 4 and the width is 2. The right width of the triangle does not show a line. It forms the central part of the verticle base of the triangle. The other parts of the base are labeled 2 on the top and bottom each. The perpendicular height from the base to the top vertex of the triangle is labeled as 5.
