Question

By splitting the following figure into rectangles, find their areas (The measures are given in centimetres).

Sum

Solution

Area of yellow region = 3 × 3

= 9 cm2

Area of orange region = 1 × 2

= 2 cm2

Area of grey region = 3 × 3

= 9 cm2

Area of brown region = 2 × 4

= 8 cm2

Total area = 9 + 2 + 9 + 8

= 28 cm2

∴ The total area is 28 cm2.
