Distance from a v-t graph

Answer 1

yes, if you have a graph with a line....take a look at the picture I linked.

ok so the distance covered is simply the area of the graph. do you know how to calculate the area of unusual shapes like this one?? if you don't, you simply divide the shape into 3 parts: two triangles and the square. the find the area of each one and add them together. the area is measured in metres.
