It should be A or 180 square inches. You can do this problem by splitting the shapes into 3 different squares. Two of the squares, which are the smaller ones have the dimensions of 3x10 and then the big square has the dimensions of 8x15. The once you find the areas of the squares you add them together which should equal 180 square inches.
