(05.03)marcus loves baseball and wants to create a home plate for his house. marcus needs to calculate the area of the home plate at the ball field so he can reconstruct it when he gets home. calculate the area of the polygon. pentagon with square measuring 8 inches by 5 inches and two triangles with heights of 7 inches and 6 inches.
72.5 in2
75.5 in2
83 in2
96 in2

83 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the answer, you can see the attached file for clarity.

Because we have a rectangle measuring 8 inches by 5 inches, we can use the area of the rectangle as follows:

A1=base*height=(8 inches)*(5 inches)=40 square inches

Now, because we have a triangle over the square side of 8 inches long, we can divide the triangle into 2 rectangle triangles, each of them with a base of 4 inches and a height of 7 inches, obtaining:

A2=2*(base*height/2)=2*(4 inches)*(7 inches)/2=28 square inches

Doing the same for the other triangle we get 2 triangles with a base of 2.5 inches and a height of 6 inches, obtaining:

A3=2*(base*height/2)=2*(2.5 inches)*(6 inches)/2=15 square inches

The addition of all areas is:

A=A1+A2+A3=40 square inches + 28 square inches + 15 square inches

A=83 square inches.

In conclusion we have an area of 83 square inches.
