![Page 20: What is area? The amount of space that a figure encloses The number of square units that covers a shape or figure. It is two-dimensional It is always](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062304/56649e385503460f94b28fbb/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
What about unusual / composite shapes?This shape can be divided into
two rectangles. Find their areas and add them together.
Area 1= l x b= 8 x 20
= 160 cm2
Area 2= l x b= 4 x 6
= 24 cm2
Total area = A1 + A2= 160 + 24=184 cm2

Try another one:In this case, a
measurement needs to be found before you begin.
7 m
A1 = 5 x 8 =40cm2
A2 = 15 x 7
=105 cm2
Total area = A1 + A2= 40 + 105= 145 cm2
