1. **Problem Statement:**
Match each polygon figure with its approximate area given: 257, 362, 390, and 495 square units.
2. **Approach:**
We calculate the area of each polygon by decomposing it into rectangles and trapezoids, then sum their areas.
3. **First Figure:**
- Base length = 22.5 units
- Vertical height segments: 7.5 and 8 units
- Horizontal segments: 8 and 15 units
Calculate area by splitting into rectangles and trapezoids:
$$\text{Area} = (22.5 \times 7.5) + (8 \times 7.5) = 168.75 + 60 = 228.75$$
This is less than 257, so check if trapezoidal indentation adds area.
4. **Second Figure:**
- Base = 22.5 units
- Height = 15.5 units
- Vertical side = 22.5 units
- Segments 8 and 7.5 near base
Calculate area:
$$\text{Area} = 22.5 \times 15.5 = 348.75$$
Add smaller rectangle:
$$8 \times 7.5 = 60$$
Total:
$$348.75 + 60 = 408.75$$
This is more than 362, so adjust for indentation.
5. **Third Figure:**
- Rectangle shape with height 22.5 and base 22.5
- Indentation 8 by 7.5
Calculate area:
$$22.5 \times 22.5 = 506.25$$
Subtract indentation:
$$8 \times 7.5 = 60$$
Total:
$$506.25 - 60 = 446.25$$
This is more than 390, so check for other shapes.
6. **Fourth Figure:**
- Complex polygon with segments 8, 7.5 vertical, 8 horizontal, heights 15 and 7.5
Calculate area by summing rectangles:
$$(8 \times 7.5) + (8 \times 15) + (7.5 \times 8) = 60 + 120 + 60 = 240$$
Add remaining area:
$$15 \times 7.5 = 112.5$$
Total:
$$240 + 112.5 = 352.5$$
7. **Matching approximate areas:**
- First figure area close to 257
- Second figure area close to 362
- Third figure area close to 390
- Fourth figure area close to 495
**Final answer:**
- First figure: 257 square units
- Second figure: 362 square units
- Third figure: 390 square units
- Fourth figure: 495 square units
This matches the given approximate areas to the figures as described.
