Find the area of the composite figure.
Square with missing top corner.
12in prarel to 10in
top 14in
bottom 20in.
All of little boxes on the three showm corners.
I did this.
Find area of rectangle
A= lxw
14 x 12 = 168 in.
Find triangle area
A = 1/2 x b xh
A= 1/2 x 12 x 10 = 60 in.
168+60 = 228 in squared
Where am I wrong? I think the rectangle is right, but not the triangle.

The correct answer is 234 in squared but I don't know how ?

So, is 234 right or 228?
