1. To find the area of the first shape, divide it into two rectangles. The left rectangle is 8m by 8m, and the right rectangle is 8m by 3m.
Area of left rectangle = 8m × 8m = 64m²
Area of right rectangle = 8m × 3m = 24m²
Total area = 64m² + 24m² = 88m²
2. To find the area of the second shape, divide it into two rectangles. The top rectangle is 10cm by 5cm, and the bottom rectangle is 18cm by 10cm.
Area of top rectangle = 10cm × 5cm = 50cm²
Area of bottom rectangle = 18cm × 10cm = 180cm²
Total area = 50cm² + 180cm² = 230cm²
3. To find the area of the third shape, divide it into three rectangles. The left rectangle is 5m by 10m, the middle rectangle is 5m by 4m, and the right rectangle is 4m by 8m.
Area of left rectangle = 5m × 10m = 50m²
Area of middle rectangle = 5m × 4m = 20m²
Area of right rectangle = 4m × 8m = 32m²
Total area = 50m² + 20m² + 32m² = 102m²
