Question

What is the area of the figure?

Answer 1

Answer:

$88 \: {in}^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure = Area of rectangle with dimensions 16 in and 4 in + Area of two right triangles with base (7 - 4 = 3) 3 in and height 8 in

$= 16 \times 4 + 2 \times \frac{1}{2} \times 3 \times 8 \\ \\ = 64 + 24 \\ \\ = 88 \: {in}^{2}$
