Question

Find the area of the following figure.

Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

The area of the given figure is $\mathbf{12}\mathit{b}{\mathbf{\text{\hspace{0.17em}\hspace{0.17em}unit}}}^{\mathbf{2}}$.

Step 1. Given information.

The given figure is a rectangle.

So,

The length of the rectangle is 12 units and the width of the rectangle is b unit.

Step 2. Write the concept.

The area of the rectangle is given by:

$A=\text{Length}\times \text{Width}$

Step 3. Determine the area.

The area of the rectangle is:

$\begin{array}{l}A=\text{Length}\times \text{Width}\\ =12\times b\\ =12b{\text{\hspace{0.17em}\hspace{0.17em}unit}}^2\end{array}$
