By comparing the given shape with easier ones like triangles and rectangles we will see that the area of the shape is 8 square units.

<h3>How to simplify the shape.</h3>

So the given shape is a little bit complex, but you can actually see that it is a triangle with a base of 8 units with a height of 4 units, where a rectangle of 2 in by 3 in was removed, and also removed a triangle of height of 2 inches and base of 2 inches.

Remember that:

A triangle of height H and base B has an area = B*H/2
A rectangle of length L and width W has an area = L*W.

Then the area of the given shape is:

A = 8*4/2 - 3*2 - 2*2/2

A = 16 - 6 - 2

A = 8

So the given shape has an area of 8 square units.

The answer is A, 75 degrees
add all like terms
2x+196
all triangles equal 180 degrees
2x+196=180
subtract the 196 from 180
2x= -16
divide
x= -8
plug into angle A
-8+83
A=75
