From velocity-time graph we can find the total distance because the distance of the
journey is equal to the area under the graph.

Total Distance = Area S1+ Area S2+Area S3


= Total area under the graph
= Area of triangle (S1) + Area
of rectangle (S2) + Area
area of triangle (S3)
or = Area of triangle (S1) + Area
of trapezium (S2 & S3)

Area of trapezium =
Area of triangle (S1) =
Area of rectangle (S2) =
