Given:

There is a pair of parallel sides in the given figure.

To find- the area of the shape.

Explanation-

Since two sides are parallel and the others are non-parallel, the shape is a trapezium.

The formula of the area of a trapezium is -


area=\frac{\text{ Height}}{2}* sum\text{ of parallel sides}

From the given figure, the height is 24 units, and the parallel sides are 3 and 10, respectively.

Substitute these values in the formula, and we get


\begin{gathered} Area=(24)/(2)*(3+10) \\ Area=12*13 \\ area=156units^2 \end{gathered}

Thus, the area of the given shape is 156 units².

The answer is 156 units².
