We can find the area of each shape separately
The area of the triangle can be found by A = 1/2bh
So the area will be 1/2 times (6+14+6= 26) 26 times 21
The area of the triangle will be 273 ft^2
The area of the square will be A=lxh
So the area will be 14 times 14
So the area of the square will be 196 ft ^2
We then add the area of both shapes together to get the total area
273 + 196 = 469 ft^2

Answer:

469 square yards

Explanation:

The area of the triangle is ...

A = 1/2bh

A = 1/2(6+14+6)(21) = 273

The area of the square is ...

A = s^2 = 14^2 = 196

The total area of the figure is the sum of the parts.

273 +196 = 469 . . . square yards
