➷ Find the area of the rectangle first:
Area of rectangle = length x width
Substitute the values in:
Area = 8 x 16
Area = 128
Now find the area of the triangle:
Area = (b x h)/2
Area = (1.5 x 6) / 2
Area = 4.5
As there are two right triangles, multiply this value by 2
4.5 x 2 = 9
Add this value to the area of the rectangle:
128 + 9 = 137
The area is 137 square feet.
