In the larger rectangle I multiplied 13 and 7 to get 91 inches for the larger rectangle. Then for the smaller rectangle I already had 7 on the top and bottom, so I split the 7 on the far side of the larger rectangle into 3 and 4. I did 7 by 4 and got 28. Lastly I added 91 and 28 to get 119.]]> 2020-09-21 13:58:56 UTC https://padlet.com/draperr/w39xaqtkeedqq1xi/wish/764216314 https://padlet.com/draperr/w39xaqtkeedqq1xi/wish/764216868 (13X7)+(7X7 divided by two).

Then I did the rectangle. First I figured out the length of the rectangle, and got 13 by subtracting 7 inches (the length/height of the triangle). Then I multiplied 13 inches (the base) by 7 (the height) to get 91. Then I added 91 to 24.5 to get 115.5 inches squared. https://padlet.com/draperr/w39xaqtkeedqq1xi/wish/764225349 2020-09-21 14:00:50 UTC https://padlet.com/draperr/w39xaqtkeedqq1xi/wish/764225349 https://padlet.com/draperr/w39xaqtkeedqq1xi/wish/764227212 First I calculated the triangle which is 3.5 x 7 x .5= 12.25. so add up the smaller triangles together you get 24.5.
