1)  


How many more squares must I shade to get a figure of 29 cm²

Answer: 10 squares


SOLUTION 1 :

Step 1: Area of 1st rectangle : 5 x 2 = 10 cm2
Step 2: Area of 2nd rectangle = 4 x 2 = 8 cm2
Step 3: Area of 1st triangle : 12 cm2
Step 4: Area of 2nd triangle : 1cm2
Step 5: Total area of the figure : 10 + 8 + 12 + 12 = 19 cm2
