Answer:
145.8cm squared
Step by step:
16.2 divided by 3 = 5.4cm
In the second line where 2 bricks are horizontal and 2 are vertical:
2x + 3y = 16.2
3y = 16.2 - 2 x 5.4
y = 1/3 x 5.4
y = 1.8cm
Hence, height and length of each triangle is 1.8cm and 5.4cm
Complete length = 16.2 cm
Complete height = 2y + x = 2 x 1.8 + 3.4
= 9 cm
Area overall = 16.2 x 9 = 145.8cm squared
