We can break it into two parts.
-> First, the rectangle on the bottom is made up of 2 feet x 16 feet. The formula for area of a rectangle is length times width, so in this case it is equal to 32 feet
-> Next, the triangle has sides of 10 feet, 10 feet, and 16 feet. We can calculate that the height is 6. The formula for area of a triangle is base times height divided by two, so,
48 feet
-> Last, we can add the two totals together. 32 feet + 48 feet = 80 feet giving us our final answer of 80 feet². As this answer is not pictured I am going to assume they are not including Heron's formula or other more complex formulas, leading us to the answer of "can't be determined"
Answer:
O can't be determined
Have a nice day! - <em>Note: It depends on the level of your math class for whether the answer "cannot be determined" is correct as it can be determined, just takes more effort than simple one - two-step formulas.</em>
I hope this is what you are looking for, but if not - comment! I will edit and update my answer accordingly. (ノ^∇^)

Answer:
The position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water is -<u>1.3 meters</u>.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u><em>The question is incomplete, so below is the complete question?</em></u>
<em>Michael is doing an underwater handstand. His feet are sticking up 0.5 meters above the surface of the water. Michael's hands are 1.8 meters directly below his feet. What is the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water?</em>
Now, to find the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water.
Meters of Michael's hands directly below his feet = 1.8 meters.
Meters of his feet sticking above the surface of the water = 0.5 meters.
So, to get the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water we subtract meters of Michael's hands directly below his feet from meters of his feet sticking above the surface of the water:

Therefore, the position of Michael's hands relative to the surface of the water is -1.3 meters.
Answer:
A negative slope means that two variables are negatively related; that is, when x increases, y decreases, and when x decreases, y increases. Graphically, a negative slope means that as the line on the line graph moves from left to right, the line falls.
