Find the area of the L-shaped floor plan shown.

8 m5 m4 m4 m

Correct Answer

56 m2

Explanation

Split the L-shape into two rectangles: top rectangle \( 8 \text{ }m \times 5\text{ } m = 40 \text{ }m^2 \), bottom-right rectangle \( 4 \text{ }m × 4 \text{ }m = 16 \text{ }m^2 \). Total area \( = 40 + 16 = 56 \text{ }m^2 \).
