C. 869 square feet
D. 699 square feet

Answer 1

Answer: 1298 square feet

------------------------------------------------------

Work Shown:

Area of Rectangle on the Left = length*width = c*d = 24*20 = 480
Area of Rectangle in the center = length*width = c*b = 24*10 = 240
Area of Rectangle on the Right = length*width = c*e = 24*17 = 408

Area of top triangle = (base*height)/2 = b*a/2 = 10*17/2 = 170/2 = 85
Area of bottom triangle = (base*height)/2 = b*a/2 = 10*17/2 = 170/2 = 85

Add up the individual areas to get:
480+240+408+85+85 = 1298

The units are in square feet since this is dealing with area.
