Answer: 132 square inches

Explanation:

Split the figure into a rectangle and a trapezoid.

The area of the rectangle is
(10)(10)=100 square inches.

The area of the trapezoid is
(1)/(2)(4)(6+10)=32 square inches.

So, the total area is
100+32=132 square inches.

The answer should be 132. If you find the area of the rectangle then subtract the area of the triangles you get 132.
