Answer:

The area of the irregular shape is 20 square cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of an Irregular Shape

Some shapes do not have regular shapes like squares, circles, triangles, etc. where well-known formulas can be applied to calculate their areas.

We have to calculate the area of the shape provided in the figure. We have divided the shape into three rectangles (see figure below). The total area of the irregular shape is:

A = A1 + A2 + A3

The first rectangle has dimensions 2 cm by 1 cm, thus its area is:

A1 = 1 cm * 2 cm = 2 square cm

The second rectangle has dimensions 2 cm by 3 cm, thus its area is:

A2 = 2 cm * 3 cm = 6 square cm

The third rectangle has dimensions 3 cm by 4 cm, thus its area is:

A3 = 3 cm * 4 cm = 12 square cm

The total area is:

A = 2 square cm + 6 square cm + 12 square cm = 20 square cm

The area of the irregular shape is 20 square cm
