Area of rectangle = 9x8=72ft^2

Base of triangle= 13-9=4ft
Area of triangle =4x8 =32ft^2
72+32=104ft^2

So your answer is 104ft^2
Hope this helps

Answer: 88 ft²

Explanation:

Separate the figure into two shapes:

  • a rectangle with length of 9 and width of 8
  • a triangle with base of 4 (13 - 9) and height of 8

Find the area of each figure

  • area of rectangle is 8 · 9 = 72 ft²
  • area of triangle is
    (4\cdot 8)/(2)=16

The sum of the area of the two shapes is: 72 + 16 = 88
