Stepped Podium
Stepped Podium: a composite plane figure made of a rectangle 7.8 × 2.4 cm, joined with a rectangle 3.6 × 2.4 cm. It is a classic primary school geometry problem (“Orthogonal Profiles”). The net area is 27.36 cm² and the total perimeter is 25.2 cm.

How to find the area
Area formula: A = B·h₁ + b·h₂
Split the figure into basic shapes, find each area, add the joined parts and subtract the cut-outs: A = 18.72 + 8.64 = 27.36 cm².
