 | We need to paint the form of the church. How much will it cost? | |
|
| Well first we have to figure out how much paint we need for the front of the church. | |

|
| Well how do you figure it out when the church is not a standard shape? | |
|
| Well, you can look at this as not one irregular shape, but as a combination of regular shapes. Then all we have to do is find the area of those shapes. | |

|
|
| Oh I see. So separate the triangle and the square for the front of the church. | |
|
| Yes, but don't forget about the rectangle on the top. | |
