8 ft
3 ft
64 ft^2
88 ft 2
44 ft^2
68 ft 2​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the figure = area of rectangle + 2 * area of a triangle

Area of rectangle:

length = 8 ft

Width = 5 ft

Area = length * width

        = 8*5

        = 40 sq ft

Area of triangle:

height (h) = 3 ft

Base b = 8 ft

Area = (1/2)*bh

        $=\frac{1}{2}*8*3\\\\=4*3$

       = 12 sq.ft

Area of the figure = 40 + 2 *12

                              = 40 + 24

                              = 64 sq ft
