Step-by-step explanation:
The figure shown has one pair of parallel sides and is a trapezium
The area (A) of a trapezium is calculated using
A = h(a + b)
where h is the height and a, b the length of the parallel sides
here h = 2w, a = w + 3 and b = 4w - 2, hence
A = × 2w(w + 3 + 4w - 2)
= w(5w + 1) = 5w² + w
