Make a line down the other side of the E so it becomes a rectangle, find the area of the big rectangle (12•10=120 inches) then find the smaller rectangles (7•5=35 inches) since there’s two small rectangles w the same measurements the area is the same(35+35= 70 inches) , Now u wanna subtract the area of the two small rectangles ( 70-120=50 inches) the Area of the E is 50 inches
