Question

Find the area of the figure by splitting them into rectangles and squares.

Answer 1

Let divide the figure into square and rectangle

So, we can see the three bigger rectangles with dimensions $4cmx1cm$

So, the area of three bigger rectangle$$\begin{gathered} =3xareaofrec\tan gle \\ =3xlengthxbreadth \\ =3x(4cmx1cm) \\ =12c{m}^2 \end{gathered}$$

and we can see the two smaller rectangles with dimensions $2cmx1cm$

So, the area of the two smaller rectangle$$\begin{gathered} =2xareaofrec\tan gle \\ =2x2cmx1cm \\ =4c{m}^2 \end{gathered}$$

So the required area of the rectangle$=12c{m}^2+4c{m}^2=16c{m}^2$
