What is the area of this figure?

To accurately answer the question, I would need specific details about the geometric figure in question, such as:

  1. The type of figure (e.g., triangle, rectangle, circle, etc.).
  2. The given dimensions (e.g., side lengths, base and height, radius, etc.).

Since these details have not been provided, I will cover the formulas for calculating the area of various common geometric shapes. This way, you can apply the appropriate formula based on the information you have.

1. Rectangle

If you have a rectangle:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \text{length} \times \text{width}
  • Example: If the length is 5 units and the width is 3 units, the area is 5 \times 3 = 15 \, \text{square units}

2. Square

If you have a square:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \text{side}^2
  • Example: If the side length is 4 units, the area is 4^2 = 16 \, \text{square units}

3. Triangle

If you have a triangle:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times \text{base} \times \text{height}
  • Example: If the base is 6 units and the height is 4 units, the area is \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 4 = 12 \, \text{square units}

4. Circle

If you have a circle:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \pi \times \text{radius}^2
  • Example: If the radius is 3 units, the area is \pi \times 3^2 = 9\pi \, \text{square units}

5. Parallelogram

If you have a parallelogram:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \text{base} \times \text{height}
  • Example: If the base is 7 units and the height is 5 units, the area is 7 \times 5 = 35 \, \text{square units}

6. Trapezoid

If you have a trapezoid:

  • Formula: \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times (\text{base}_1 + \text{base}_2) \times \text{height}
  • Example: If the bases are 8 units and 5 units, and the height is 4 units, the area is \frac{1}{2} \times (8 + 5) \times 4 = \frac{1}{2} \times 13 \times 4 = 26 \, \text{square units}

Application Example

Imagine we have a triangle with a base of 6 units and a height of 3 units.

  • Calculate the area: \text{Area} = \frac{1}{2} \times 6 \times 3 = 9 \, \text{square units}

If you have a specific figure and its dimensions, please provide them, so I can give a more targeted solution.
