Let’s separate the figure into 2 parts to answer the question easier. If we seperate he figure into 2 reasonable shapes, we get a rectangle with a width of 8 and a length of 20 and another shape with a width of 4 and a length of 5.
All we need to do to solve this question is to find the areas of both and add them together. Let’s use the equation wl=a or width*length=area, and insert the known values for the first shape. 8*20=160 Now repeat for the second shape. 4*5=20 Finally, add the two together to get he total area. 160+20=180 The shape has an area of 180 square inches. Hope this helps!
