Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a triangle is found using the formula

A = 1/2bh

For the first triangle, the base is 6 and the height is 8:

A = 1/2(6)(8) = 3(8) = 24 sq. in.

For the second triangle, the base is 10 and the height is 8:

A = 1/2(10)(8) = 5(8) = 40 sq. in.

The total area will be the sum of these two areas:

24+40 = 64 sq. in.

Multiply the height by the base to get the area. 8 x 6 = 48. The area of the first triangle is 48 square inches. 8 x 10 = 80. The area of the second triangle is 80 square inches.
