a. 40 miles2

b. 104 miles2

c. 93.5 miles2

d. 92 miles2

d. The area of Stuckeyburg will be found by dividing the region into a triangle and a rectangle . Determine the area of the rectangle (A = lw) and add the area of the triangle ( 1/2 bh) for the total area of the region. Referring to the sketch, the area of the rectangle is (10)(8) = 80 miles2. The area of the triangle is 1/2 (8)(3) = 12 miles2. The sum of the two regions is 80 miles2 + 12 miles2 = 92 miles2. If you select a, you found the perimeter. If you select b, you found the area of the rectangular region but did not add the triangular region.
