Answer: The area of the banner is 100 in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
so let say the banner was still a rectangle with the triangle still attached to it so if we needed to find the area of the whole rectangle we will need to multiply the length times the width
so 14 * 8 = 112
But now a triangle is being cut out of the rectangle so we need to find the area of the triangle being cut out and subtract it from the area of the whole rectangle. But first we need to find the base and the base is 8 since the other side base is 8 too and the height will be 3 since 14- 11= 3
Now find the area of the triangle by multiplying the base times the height and divide it by 2.
8 * 3= 24
24/2= 12
subtract 12 from 112
112- 12 = 100
