By comparing the given shape with easier ones like triangles and rectangles we will see that the area of the shape is 8 square units.
<h3>
How to simplify the shape.</h3>
So the given shape is a little bit complex, but you can actually see that it is a triangle with a base of 8 units with a height of 4 units, where a rectangle of 2 in by 3 in was removed, and also removed a triangle of height of 2 inches and base of 2 inches.
Remember that:
- A triangle of height H and base B has an area = B*H/2
- A rectangle of length L and width W has an area = L*W.
Then the area of the given shape is:
A = 8*4/2 - 3*2 - 2*2/2
A = 16 - 6 - 2
A = 8
So the given shape has an area of 8 square units.

Step-by-step explanation:
WYXV is quadrilateral.
the reason are the undefined angles at W and V (they are equal, but not necessarily 90°, so the shape could shrink or extend between W and V)
ABCD is a rectangle.
AB and CD are parallel and equally long. and C is 90°.
that means then that the other angles must be 90° too, or either the parallel or equally long criteria would be violated.
PQSR is a parallelogram.
PQ and RS are parallel and equally long.
that means that PR and QS must also be parallel and equally long. we just don't know the angles, they could be anything. and therefore this is not a rectangle but a more generic parallelogram.

Part A:</h3>
The area A of a rectangle is A = bh, where b is the base of the rectangle and h is the height. The area of each rectangle with side lengths 1.5 ft and 2 ft is 1.5 × 2 = 3ft2. Since there are two rectangles with these dimensions, the combined area is 2 × 3 = 6 ft2. The area of each rectangle with side lengths 1.5 ft and 2.5 ft is 1.5 × 2.5 = 3.75 ft2. The area of each rectangle with side lengths 2 ft and 2.5 ft is 2 × 2.5 = 5 ft2. Since there are two rectangles of each type, the combined area is 2 × 3.75 + 2 × 5 =17.5 ft2. <u><em>So, the total surface area of the box is 6 ft2+ 17.5 ft2 = 23.5 ft2</em></u>

<h3>Part B:</h3>
The employee needs to wrap 8 boxes, each with a surface area of 23.5 ft2. So, the combined surface area needing to be wrapped is 8 × 23.5 = 188 ft2. Since there is only 160 square feet of wrapping paper left, the employee will not be able to wrap all of the gifts
