Solution
The correct option is A 16 Number of horizontal tiles in each row of the figure = 4
Number of vertical tiles in each column of the figure = 4
So,
Total number of tiles = Number of tiles on each row × Number of tiles in each column
⇒ Total number of tiles = 4 × 4 = 16
Area of 1 tile = 1 × 1 sq. ft = 1 sq. ft
∴ Area of the figure will be:
= Area of each tile × Total Number of tiles
So, area of the figure is
= 1 sq ft. × 16 = 16 sq ft.
