Answer:

89

Explanation:

So we need to find the area of the triangle. We already know that the individual two triangles height is 6 and so we need to find the width. The top is 13m and we know that 4m+4m is 8. 13-8 would be 5, and 5/2 (because there are two right triangles) is 2.5

After that, we can find 2.5 times 6 would be 15. We don't need to divide by two because we'll just have to multiply again because there are two triangles.

After that, we can find the area of the figure. 8 times 13 would be 104. 104-15 would be 89. That is the area of the figure, 89.
