To find the area of the triangle, use the formula
A = B x H x 0.5
A = 3 x 6 x 0.5
A = 9
Hence, the area of the triangle is 9 feet squared.
Now, find the area of the rectangle using the formula
A = L x H
A = 16 x 8
A = 128
So, the area of the rectangle is 128 feet squared.
Now, just add the areas to find the irregular shape’s total area:
8 + 128 = 137
Therefore, the area of the entire shape is 137 feet squared.
Hope this helps!
