ANSWER

The area is 340 square yards

Step-by-step explanation

We can divide this figure into two rectangles, find each area and then add them up:

The first rectangle is 33yd wide and 10 yd long. Its area is:


A_1=33yd*10yd=330yd^2

The second triangle is 2 yd wide and 5 yd long. Its area is:


A_2=2ys*5yd=10yd^2

The area of the figure is:


\begin{gathered} A=A_1+A_2 \\ A=330yd^2+10yd^2 \\ A=340yd^2 \end{gathered}
