to find area of triangle: 1/2 x base x height

to find area of square: base x height

for left triangle:

1/2 x 2 x 2 = 2

square:

2 x 2 = 4

right triangle:

1/2 x 6 x 2 = 6

total area = 2 + 4 + 6

total area = 12

Answer:

12cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

AREA of Trapezium =(a+b)h/2

where a = lenght of side a

b = lenght of size b

h = height of the shape

Area = 2(2+10)/2

Area = 2 x 12 / 2

Area = 12cm²

OR

The shape has 3 basic shapes in it.

Triangle A, Square A and Triangle B

Area of Triangle = 1/2 x Base x Height

Area of Triangle A = 1/2 x 2 x 2

= 1/2 x 4 = [tex]2cm^{2}[/tex]

Area of Square A =Lenght² = L²

= 2² = 4cm²

Area of Triangle B = 1/2BH

= 1/2 x 6 x 2 = 6cm²

Total Area of the shape = Area of Triangle A + Area of Square A + Area of Triangle B

= 2cm² + 4cm²+6cm²

=12cm²
