Answer:

A. 806.5 in²

Explanation:

The figure given is a combination of a rectangle, a trapezoid and a triangle.

The formulas for the areas of each figure:

Rectangle: length x width

Trapezoid:
h((b_(1)+b_(2))/(2)), where
b_(1) and
b_(2) are the lengths of each base and h is the height of the figure

Triangle: 1/2 bh, b = base and h = height

For each of the figures given:

rectangle: 16 x 9 = 144 in²

trapezoid:
15((31+16)/(2)) = 352.5 in²

triangle: 1/2(31*20) = 310 in²

310 + 144 + 352.5 = 806.5 in²
