Answer:
675^2 in.
Step-by-step explanation:
Start by dividing the shape into 3 parts
-rectangle
-2 triangles
Find the area of the rectangle by using the formula: length x width
The area of the rectangle is 500^2 in.
Now find the area for ONE of the triangles using the formular: length x width / 2.
7 x 25 = 175
Divide by 2.
87.5
Because there are TWO triangles of the same size, multiple 87.5 by 2.
Now add the area of the triangles (175) and the rectangle (500)
The total area is 675^2 in.
