1. Problem Description

The problem asks to find the area of the given figure, which is a composite shape made up of a triangle, rectangles, and squares.

2. Solution Steps

First, we divide the figure into smaller rectangles, a square, and a right triangle.
The area of each part can be calculated using the standard formulas.
a. Triangle on the left:
Base = 6 ft
Height = 5 ft
Area of triangle = 12×base×height=12×6×5=15\frac{1}{2} \times base \times height = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 5 = 15 square feet
b. Rectangle below the triangle:
Length = 3 ft
Width = 6 ft
Area of rectangle = length×width=3×6=18length \times width = 3 \times 6 = 18 square feet
c. Rectangle in the middle:
Length = 8 ft
Width = 6 ft
Area of rectangle = length×width=8×6=48length \times width = 8 \times 6 = 48 square feet
d. Rectangle on the right:
Length = 3 ft
Width = 9 ft
Area of rectangle = length×width=3×9=27length \times width = 3 \times 9 = 27 square feet
e. Square on top right.
Length = 5 ft
Width = 5 ft
Area of the square = length×width=5×5=25length \times width = 5 \times 5 = 25 square feet
To calculate the area of the whole shape we subtract the square.
Total Area = Area of triangle + Area of rectangle (below the triangle) + Area of rectangle (middle) + Area of rectangle (right) + Area of square
Total Area = 15 + 18 + 48 + 27 + 25 = 133 square feet

3. Final Answer

133 square feet
