What is the area of this figure? 28 yd² 40 yd² 52 yd² 64 yd² a square with sides measuring 4 yards and an attached right triangle with a base of 6 yards and a height made up of two segments, each 4 yards long.

Separating your figure into two separate parts would solve this problem.let's start with the square first. each of the sides of the square is 4 yards long. to find the area of a square, use the formula  a =   (area = side).a =  a = 16 next, we'll find the area of the triangle. the formula for the area of a triangle is  a =  bh (area =  base x height). the height of your triangle is made up of two 4 yard segments. the total for the height would then be 8 yards (4+4).a = (6  · 8)a = (48)a = 24 ydlet's combine to find the total area of the entire figure.square = 16 triangle = 24 ydadding them together, the total area will give you an answer of 40 yd.
