Answer:

B. 75 ft²

Explanation:

We can tell the center is and 8 by 6 rectangle.

8ft × 6ft = 48 ft²

On the left we have half of a 5 by 6 rectangle.

5ft × 6ft = 30 ft²

30 ft² ÷ 2 = 15 ft²

On the right we have a triangle. To find a triangle's area we multiply the base and height and divide it by 2.

(6ft × 4ft) ÷ 2 = 24 ft² ÷ 2 = 12 ft²

48 ft² + 15 ft² + 12 ft² = 75 ft²

Answer:

B

Explanation:

Split into 3 shapes: the left most triangle, the middle rectangle and then the right most triangle on its side.

The height of the left triangle is the same as the height on the right: 6.

Left triangle area = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 5 * 6 = 15

Height of rectangle is also 6.

Rectangle area = base * height = 8 * 6 = 48

Right most triangle area = (1/2) * base * height = (1/2) * 4 * 6 = 12

12 + 48 + 15 = 75 square feet
