Sarah is making a wall hanging in the shape shown below.

what is the area of the wall hanging?

a. 53 square inches
b. 44 square inches
c. 56 square inches
d. 64 square inches

C

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the wall hanging shown in blue is the area of the square 8 by 8 minus the area of the cutout. Notice the cutout is a triangle? To find the total area, subtract the area of the triangle from the square.

The square has the sides 8 by 8 and its area is found as A = 8*8 = 64.

The triangle measures 4 inches by 4 inches. The area is found as A = 1/2*4*4 = 8.

Subtract the two areas.

64 - 8 = 56
