<h3>Answer: 1075 square feet</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
As shown in the diagram below, I've drawn a blue horizontal line to split the figure into two rectangles (smaller one up top, larger down below).
The smaller rectangle up top is 25 ft by 8 ft, giving an area of 25*8 = 200 sq ft.
The larger rectangle down below is 35 ft by 25 ft so we have an area of 35*25 = 875 sq ft.
The total area is 200+875 = 1075 square feet
Notes:
- We can write "square feet" as "sq ft" or as "ft^2" without quotes.
- The portion "5 ft", in the upper left corner, is never used.
