Answer:
69 m²
Step-by-step explanation:
The figure is composed of 2 right triangles
The area (A) of a triangle is calculated as
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] bh ( b is the base and h the perpendicular height )
A of triangle on left is
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 9 × 10 = 45 m²
A of triangle on right is
A = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × 8 × 6 = 24 m²
Total area = 45 + 24 = 69 m²
