Answer:

402 mi²

Explanation:

Extending the vertical segments divides the figure into 3 rectangles:

left: 22 mi by 12 mi

center: 13 mi by 6 mi

right: 20 mi by 3 mi

The area of each rectangle is the product of its length and width. The total area is the sum of the areas of the three rectangles:

total area = (22·12 +13·6 +20·3) mi² = (264 +78 +60) mi² = 402 mi²
