Question

Find the area of the given figure (not drawn to scale).

• A. $200c{m}^2$
• B. $94c{m}^2$
• C. $84c{m}^2$
• D. $100c{m}^2$

Answer 1

The correct option is D $100c{m}^2$

Area of square $ABCD=(6{)}^2=36c{m}^2$
Area of rectangle $CEFG=EF\times EC$
$=4\times 10=40c{m}^2$
Area of rectangle $FHIJ=JI\times HI$
$=6\times 2=12c{m}^2$
Area of rectangle $GKLM=GM\times LM=6\times 2=12c{m}^2$
$\therefore$ Required area $=(36+40+12+12)c{m}^2=100c{m}^2$.
