Find the area of the figure by splitting them into rectangles and squares.
Let's divide the figure into squares and rectangle
Area of a first rectangle =2cmx2.5cm=5cm2
Area of a second rectangle =7cmx2cm=14cm2
Area of a third rectangle =5cmx2.5cm=12.5cm2
The area of the required figure=5cm2+14cm2+12.5cm2=31.5cm2
Question 10(a)
By splitting the figure into rectangles, find the area of the figure. (The measures are given in centimetres)
