The area of the figure is 144.5 cm2.
To calculate the area, we need to find the area of the rectangle (9 cm x 13 cm = 117 cm2) and the area of the triangle (1/2 x base x height = 1/2 x 9 cm x 11 cm = 49.5 cm2). Adding these two areas together gives us a total of 117 cm2 + 49.5 cm2 = 166.5 cm2.
What is the area of the figure? The figure is not drawn to scale.
The figure shows a 9 centimeter wide and 13 centimeter high rectangle. A right triangle is adjacent to the lower right side of the rectangle. From the 9 centimeter lower side, an 11 centimeter triangle leg extends to the right. The vertical leg extends approximately half-way up the right side of the rectangle.
