Mr. Cole made this diagram of his bedroom. Which is the area of Mr. Cole’s bedroom? 90 square feet 82 square feet 72 square feet 36 square feet

The answer is 82 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

An easy way to do this is to split it into two rectanlges. You can do 10*5 and 8*4 as the dimensions to the two rectangles or you can do 2*4 and 9*8.

I am going to do the first option.

The area of a rectangle is length times width.

Rectangle one can be the one with the dimensions 10 and 5 and the length and width.

Rectangle two can be the one with the dimensions 8 and 4 and the length and width.

Area of rectangle one = 50 feet^2

Area of rectangle two = 32 feet^2

Since we split a large irregular shape into two bits, we must add them together, which results in 82 feet^2.
