We have the following:

we separate the figure into 2 two, the total area will be the sum of these, like this:

the area of each one is the base times the height in each case, therefore we calculate in each case the area

The small


\begin{gathered} a=2\cdot2=4 \\ \end{gathered}

The big


A=4\cdot5=20

The total area is:


A_T=4+20=24

The answer is 24 square feet
