Answer:
51 yd²
Explanation:
To find the area of this figure, we can split the figure into smaller rectangles.
One rectangle can be cut to form a 3 yd * 4 yd rectangle, and the other one can be cut to form a 13 yd * 3 yd rectangle. Find the areas of both of these rectangles and add them up.
3 yd * 4 yd = 12 yd²
13 yd * 3 yd = 39 yd²
39yd² + 12yd² = 51yd²
