Answer 1

The area of the figure is 55.5 ft².

Solution:

Area of the top triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times\text{base}\times\text{height}$

                                       $=\frac{1}{2} \times{3}\times{2}$

Area of the top triangle = 3 ft²

Area of the rectangle = length × width

                                    = 8 × 6

Area of the rectangle = 48 ft²

Area of the bottom triangle = $\frac{1}{2} \times\text{base}\times\text{height}$

                                              $=\frac{1}{2} \times{3}\times{3}$

Area of the bottom triangle = 4.5 ft²

Area of the figure = 3 ft² + 48 ft² + 4.5 ft²

                              = 55.5 ft²

The area of the figure is 55.5 ft².
