We would section the figure into two shapes as shown below

We can see a trapezium and a rectangle. We would find the area of each figure and add them.

For the trapezium,

Area = 1/2 * (a + b)h

a nd b are the opposite sides of the trapezium while h represents the height.

Thus,

a = 20, b = 24 and h = 9es of the trapezium while h represents the height.
