  1. Areas of Irregular Figures • Find areas of irregular figures. • Find areas of irregular figures on the coordinate plane. The wind surfer’s sail can be separated into figures that can be identified, such as trapezoids and a triangle.

  2. IRREGULAR FIGURES An irregular figurecannot be classified as a specific shape that we have studied. To find areas of irregular figures, separate the figure into shapes of which we can find the area. A D C B

  3. IRREGULAR FIGURES An irregular figure cannot be classified as a specific shape that we have studied. To find areas of irregular figures, separate the figure into shapes of which we can find the area. A Auxiliary lines are drawn in quadrilateral ABCD. The figure is separated into two triangles and a rectangle. D E C B F

  4. Postulate The area of a region is the sum of its non-overlapping parts.

  5. Example 1Area of an Irregular Figure 19 6 Area of irregular figure = area of rectangle – area of triangle + area of semicircle. 6 6 22

  6. IRREGULAR FIGURES ON THE COORDINATE PLANE To find the area of a polygon on the coordinate plane, separate the polygon into known figures.
