Question

What is the area of the given figure?

• A. 124 sq.m
• B. 48 sq.m
• C. 50 sq.m
• D. 98 sq.m

Answer 1

The correct option is D 98 sq.m

Divide the figure into two rectangles (1) and (2)

Area of the rectangle with dimensions(1),
$10m\times 5m=50sq.m$

Area of the rectangle with dimensions(2),
$8m\times 6m=48sq.m$
$\therefore$ The required area = Area of the rectangle (1) + Area of the rectangle (2)
$=50+48=98sq.m$
