(Assume that the area of each square to be 1 sq. centimetre.)

• A.

• B.
  30 sq. cm
• C.
  32 sq. cm
• D.
  35 sq. cm

Answer 1

The correct option is A

26 sq. cm
26 sq. cm

Number of fully covered squares = 18
Number of more than half covered squares = 7
Number of half covered squares = 1
Number of less than half covered squares = 14

Total Area = (18 + 7 + 1 + 0) sq. cm = 26 sq. cm
