multiply the width by the length, e.g. 5cm= width, 4cm= length, 5x4= 20, 20cm squared
You divide the shape into smaller shapes you can calculate, like rectangles and triangles. If the shape is irregular, you have to approximate, for example by dividing it into many narrow rectangles. This technique is called "integration".

Simply add the numbers up For example, If the area of a semicirce is 20cm squared and the area of a rectange is 25cm squared, then the total area would be 20 + 25 = 45
multiply the width by the length, e.g. 5cm= width, 4cm= length, 5x4= 20, 20cm squared
You divide the shape into smaller shapes you can calculate, like rectangles and triangles. If the shape is irregular, you have to approximate, for example by dividing it into many narrow rectangles. This technique is called "integration".
10cm by 10cm (perimeter=40cm), 5cm by 20cm (perimeter=50cm), 50cm by 2cm (perimeter=104cm), 100cm by 1cm (perimeter=202cm). All of these rectangles' areas are 100cm2
If 20cm is the diameter then radius is 10cm and area = Pi * r2 = Pi * 100 = 314 to the nearest square centimetre.
You should break it down in to smaller shapes. Two rectangles. Then figure out all the lengths. Multiply to find the area of the two rectangles. then add the products to get the final area.
