The shape can be broken into two separate rectangles of the forms below.

Bothe shapes give a rectangle, therefore the area of the shape is

Area of Shape = Area of rectangle A + Area of rectangle B

Since Area of rectangle = LENGTH X BREADTH, we then have below


\begin{gathered} \text{Area of shape = (28 x 7)}+(25*30) \\ =196+750 \\ =946\text{ square inches} \end{gathered}

In conclusion, the answer is 946 square inches

The area of this figure 20 in. is square inches. 28 in. 30 in. 7 in. 25 in.-example-1
