Answer:

96

Explanation:

The area of a parallelogram is A = b*h. Substitute b = 8 and h= 6 to find the area.

A = 8*6 = 48

The area of a triangle is A = 1/2 b*h. Substitute h = 6 and b = 16 since the triangle has a length of 8 as well as the whole parallelogram.

A = 1/2 *16*6 = 48

Together the areas equal 48 + 48 = 96
