What is the area of the quadrilateral?

1 answer

To find the area of the quadrilateral, we can divide it into two triangles.

First we find the area of triangle with base of 5 units and height of 3 units.
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Area = 1/2 * 5 * 3
Area = 7.5 square units

Second we find the area of triangle with base of 3 units and height of 4 units.
Area = 1/2 * base * height
Area = 1/2 * 3 * 4
Area = 6 square units

The total area of the quadrilateral is the sum of the two triangles.
Total Area = 7.5 + 6
Total Area = 13.5 square units

Therefore, the area of the quadrilateral is 13.5 square units.
