WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST, please explain your answer! Calculate the area of the block "V" shown below. *Drawing not to scale

  132 mm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The line added to the figure in the attachment shows it can be divided into two figures whose area is easily calculated.

  1. A parallelogram of base length 20 mm and height 4 mm:

     A = bh = (20 mm)(4 mm) = 80 mm^2

  2. A trapezoid with bases 32 mm and 20 mm, and height 2 mm:

     A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(32 mm +20 mm)(2 mm) = 52 mm^2

The total area of the figure is then ...

  80 mm^2 +52 mm^2 = 132 mm^2

sorry, i'm new here and i'm just trying to figure this out. try quizlet. rate 5* you!

may i see the picture? it would a lot, xox
