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^∇^)
