Answer:

203 sq ft

Explanation:

if you draw an imaginary line horizontally at the 11 feet mark you have a triangle sitting on top of a rectangle

Area (triangle) = 1/2 x base x height

A = 1/2 x 14 x 7

A = 7 x 7

A = 49

Area (rectangle) = length x width

A = 11 x 14

A = 154

Total Area = 49 + 154

203 sq ft
