Sagot :

Answer:

50.05 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok so first lets find the area of the rectangle before finding the attached triangle. You have to imagine a line separating this shape into a triangle and rectangle.

The rectangle's size is 6.5x5.5=35.75 cm^2

The rectangle's size is 11.7-6.5 to get the base length, which is 5.2

The height is 5.5

So it's 5.2*5.5/2=14.3 cm^2

14.3+35.75=50.05 cm^2
