A design has a square of side 14 cm attached to a rectangle 8 cm by 3 cm. What is the total area?
Note
Add the two separate areas: square area 14×14 = 196; rectangle area 8×3 = 24; total = 220 cm². For a shaded or remaining part, find each simple area first, then subtract the part that is removed. Treat the square and rectangle as two separate simple shapes. Add their areas only if they are attached without overlapping, and keep the answer in square units.
