C would be the answer this is the correct answer because it makes most sense and also that’s correct because

The area of the top is :1/2x8x6=24 cm
Next!!

The area of the bottom is:1/2x8x4=16cm
Next!!
24 cm +16 cm = 40cm
Next!!
Soo this is how I got my answer I hope u pass

Answer:

C) 40 cm²

Explanation:

area of top triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 6 = 24 cm²

area of bottom triangle = 1/2 x 8 x 4 = 16 cm²

24 cm² + 16 cm² = 40 cm²
