Answer:

Option D. 140 unit²

Explanation:

In this question area of the polygon ABEHGFA = area of rectangle ABED + area of rectangle DFGH

Now area of rectangle ABED = BE×DE = (17 -11)×(10-5) = 6×5 = 30 unit²

Area of rectangle DFGH = GH×FG = 10×11 = 110 unit²

Total area = 110 + 30 = 140 square unit.

Therefore option D. 140 square unit is the answer.
