Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete, as the image of the polygon is not given.

I will answer this question with the attached image (similar to your question)

The attached polygon is a trapezoid of the following dimensions.

$Height = 4ft$

Parallel sides

$Side\ 1 = 4ft$

$Side\ 2 = 4ft+1ft = 5ft$

So, the area is:

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * (Side\ 1 + Side\ 2) * Height$

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * (4ft + 5ft) * 4ft$

$Area = \frac{1}{2} * 9ft * 4ft$

$Area = 18ft^2$
