Answer:
81 square meters
Explanation:
The width of the upper triangle is 9 meters, given to use by the length at the bottom of the figure. With a height of 8, that means that the upper triangle's area is .5*8*9, or 36 square meters. The parallelogram at the bottom has a height of 5 and a width of 9, giving it an area of 45 square meters.
Adding together the areas of the parallelogram and the triangle gives us 81 square meters.
