Answer:
I think the answer is 36yd.^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The reason for this is because if you divide the whole shape into smaller and simpler shapes, you will get to make three rectangles.
The first rectangle on the top has the height of 4 and base of 6, which if you multiply them, it will equal 24.
Next, the second rectangle, which would be the small one in the middle will have the base of 1 (because the bottom triangle gives you a hint of how the base is 1 yard; 5-4 equals 1) and height of 2 (because the first and last rectangle has the height of 4 and 2, but the height of the whole shape is 8, so 4+2 equals 6, and 8 minus 6 is 2). Which the base and height will equal 2.
Lastly, the last rectangle has the height of 2 and base of 5 because it's obvious. Which will equal 10.
Add all the areas together (10+2+24) and it will equal 36.
