Sagot :

multiply it using a calculator

Answer:

144 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have a trapezoid with a triangle inside.

The legs of the trapezoid are 18 ft and 8 ft, and so the average length of the trapezoid is (18 + 8)/2 ft, o 13 ft.  The total area of the trapezoid is thus:

A = (13 ft)(16 ft) = 208 ft^2

Now we must find the area of the white triangle and subtract it from the area of the trapezoid already found.  The area formula for a triangle i

A = (1/2)(base)(height), which in this case is A = (1/2)(8 ft)(16 ft), or

A = 64 ft^2.

Subtracting the area of the triangle from that of the trapezoid yields

Area of figure = 144 ft^2
