The answer is the second choice, or B; 240 ft^2.
You have to find the area of all four triangles and just add those all together.
Two of the triangles have an area of
5*16=80
Multiply that by two
80*2=160
The other two smaller triangles have an area of
8*5=40
Multiply that by 2 also
40*2=80
Add 160+80 and the answer is 240.
Let
be the dimensions of the rectangle. We know the equations for both area and perimeter:


So, we have the following system:

From the second equation, we can deduce

Plug this in the first equation to get

Refactor as

And solve with the usual quadratic formula to get

Both solutions are feasible, because they're both positive.
If we chose the positive solution, we have

If we choose the negative solution, we have

So, we're just swapping the role of
and
. The two dimensions of the rectangle are
and
