Type the correct answer in the box.

The area of the figure is ___ square units.

26 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a diagram and are asked to find the area of the figure in square units.

To solve, take in mind that we need to multiply the sides given.

Area is L * W, therefore, we know that our length is 5 by 2 units, while our width is 3 by 2 units.

First start with the length, since it is 5 by 2 we multiply 5 and 2 :

5 * 2 = 10

Then with the width, since it is 3 by 2, we can multiply 3 and 2 :

3 * 2 = 6

Then do the length again since the bottom part of the diagram needs to be included, it is also 5 by 2 :

5 * 2 = 10

Add all these together to get your answer :

10 + 6 + 10

16 + 10

26 square units.

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
