Answer:

126.5 cm²

Explanation:

Hello!

This shape can be split into a rectangle and a triangle.

The rectangle's dimensions are 8 and 11, and the base and height of the triangle are 11 and 7 respectively.

Area of Rectangle:

  • A = b * h
  • A = 8 * 11
  • A = 88

Area of Triangle:

  • A = b*h/2
  • A = 11 * 7/2
  • A = 77/2
  • A = 38.5

The combined area is 88 + 38.5 which is 126.5 cm².
