Answer:
A = 75 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
We have the rectangle and the right triangle.
The formula of an area of a rectangle:
A = lw
l - length
w - width
We have l = 10 in and w = 5 in. Substitute:
A = (10)(5) = 50 in²
The formula of an area of a triangle:
A = 1/2 bh
b - base
h - height
We have b = 5 in and h = 5 in + 5 in = 10 in. Substitute:
A = 1/2(5)(10)=1/2(50)=25 in²
The area of figure:
A = 50 in² + 25 in² = 75 in²
