Answer:

42 square units

Explanation:

For a better understanding, I add an EFGH Rectangle.

The area of EFGH Rectangle = p x l

The area of EFGH Rectangle = 10 x 8

The area of EFGH Rectangle = 80cm²

The area of BHA Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of BHA Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of BHA Triangle = 1/2 x 6 x 4

The area of BHA Triangle = 2 x 6

The area of BHA Triangle = 12cm²

The area of AGD Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of AGD Triangle = 1/2 x 4 x 2

The area of AGD Triangle = 4cm²

The area of CFD Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of CFD Triangle = 1/2 x 2 x 6

The area of CFD Triangle = 6cm²

The area of BEC Triangle = 1/2 x a x t

The area of BEC Triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 4

The area of BEC Triangle = 4 x 4

The area of BEC Triangle = 16cm²

The area of the trapezoid = EFGH Rectangle - (BHA Triangle + AGD Triangle + CFD Triangle + BEC Triangle)

The area of the trapezoid = 80 - (12 + 4 + 6 + 16)

The area of the trapezoid = 80 - 38

The area of the trapezoid = 42cm²
