SOLUTION

Considering the shape,

Notice that the shape has two triangles.

Considering the trianglesl,the whole image can be seen as a rectangle.

Hence the area of the ractangle from the grid is 28 square units.

Notice that each triangle has an height of 2 units and base of 4 units

Hence the anrea is:


(1)/(2)*4*2=4

Hence the area of the given figure is:


\begin{gathered} 28-4-4 \\ =20 \end{gathered}

Therefore the area of the figure is 20 square units.
