A design for a garden is composed of a triangle and 2 rectangles. Some side lengths of the garden design are shown. 7.5 ft 12.5 ft 7.5 ft 12.5 ft What is the area of the garden in square feet?

The area of a rectangle is Length · Width. Both rectangles have a length of 12.5 feet and a width of 7.5 feet. 12.5 · 7.5 = 93.75. And since both rectangles have the same dimensions, we can just multiply 93.75 by two to get 187.5 square feet for the rectangles.

The area of a triangle is Base · Height / 2. Since the sides of the triangle are the same as the sides of rectangles, the dimensions of the triangle are 7.5 feet and 7.5 feet.

7.5 · 7.5 / 2 = 28.125 square feet.

187.5 + 28.125 = 215.625 square feet.

Hope this helps! :)
