For this case, the total area is the area of the triangle plus the area of the square:
Area of the triangle = (1/2) * (7) * (5) = 17.5
Area of the square = (7) * (7) = 49
Area of the pentagon = 17.5 + 49 = 66.5
the nearest square inch
Area of the pentagon = 67 in ^ 2
answer
the area of the pentagon is 67 in ^ 2
