Answer:
Area of trapezoid:
12 + 6<-- your two bases of the trapezoid = 18
18 x 4 = 72, 72 divided by 2 = 36
now we multiply by 2 since there are 2 trapezoids:
36 x 2 = 72
Area of rectangle in front:
6 x 3 = 18
Area of the 2 rectangles on the sides:
5 x 3 = 15
(multiply by 2 since there are two rectangles on both sides)
15 x 2 = 30
Area of rectangle on the back:
12 x 3 = 36
Now lets add up all the areas:
72 + 18 + 30 + 36 = 156 in2 is your answer.
