The area of the figure is 27.5 square units.
Solution:
The given image is a trapezium.
Count the small boxes to find the length.
Length of top base ([tex]b_1[/tex]) = 4 units
Length of bottom base ([tex]b_2[/tex]) = 7 units
Height of the trapezium = 5 units
Area of the trapezium:
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2}\times (b_1+b_2)\times h[/tex]
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2}\times (4+7)\times 5[/tex]
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 11\times 5[/tex]
[tex]$A=\frac{1}{2}\times 55[/tex]
A = 27.5 square units.
The area of the figure is 27.5 square units.
