Answer:
707 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
In order for you to find the area for this irregular shape, you are going to cut it into two shapes. I chose to cut it horizontally where we then end up with two rectangular.
17 +16 = 33 and 24 - 5 = 19 // The sides of the top rectangular are the Widths being 19 and the length being 33.
To Calculate a Rectangular's area we multiply the L × W
= 33 × 19
= 627
The sides of the smaller rectangular are 5 and 16.
L × W = 16×5
= 80
To get the final answer, we must then add together the area of both the rectangles :
= Area of Rectangle 1 + Area of Rectangle 2
= 627 + 80
= 707
We then put on our measurements = 707 ft^2
