Answer 1

I don't see the pic. :(

Answer 2

The figure is formed of a rectangle and a triangle

The rectangle has dimensions:length=38ft and width=20ft

The triangle has dimensions:base=33ft and height=9ft

Area of rectangle=length*width of rectangle

Area of triangle=
`(1)/(2)`*base*height

Area of figure= area of rectangle + area of triangle

Area=length*width+
`(1)/(2)`*base*height

Area=38*20 +
`(1)/(2)`*33*9

Area=760+
`(1)/(2)`*297

So we have, Area=760+
`(297)/(2)`

Or, Area=760+148.5

Area=908.5

Area of the floor=908.5
`ft^(2)`
