Rachel wants to put mulch around her three raised flower beds, as shown in the figure below, • Each of the three rectangular beds is 3 feet in width and 4 feet in length,
• Rachel needs to fill the 13 foot by 6 foot rectangular area around the beds with mulch to a depth of 3 inches

hold up kiddo I need to check it real quick

so a parallelogram is just like a square base times height. multiply 40 and 39 to get 1560 inches.

a triangle is base times height divided by two. so multiply 7.9 and 5 and then divide it by 2 to get 19.75inches.

the kite can be split into two separate triangles and added together to get the total area. 30 x 4 /2 which equals 60. make sure to double it for the two triangles making 120.
