Answer:

28+104 = 132cm^2

Explanation:

We can find the area of this figure by breaking it into two separate pieces. The top is a rectangle and the bottom is a trapezoid.

A rectangle = l*w = 7*4 = 28 cm^2

A trapezoid = 1/2 (b1+b2) *h = 1/2 (19+7) *8 = 1/2 (26)*8 =104 cm^2

Add these areas together

28+104 = 132cm^2
