Answer:

  13 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

See the attached figure.

The horizontal dashed line divides the figure into two pieces:

  • a triangle 4 wide and 2 high
  • a trapezoid 2 high with bases 5 and 4

The appropriate area formulas can be used to find the areas of these. The figure's area will be their sum.

  A = (1/2)bh = (1/2)(4)(2) = 4 . . . . square units

  A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h = (1/2)(5 +4)(2) = 9 . . . . square units

The area of the shape is ...

  (4 +9) square units = 13 square units
