Answer, Alright the formula for a Rectangle is (A = bh) so ill do ( 13 x 8 ) = 104. Next ill do the triangle 19 - 13 is 6 which is the height of the triangle. The formula for a triangle is ( 1/2bh ) so lets do (6 x 8 ) which is 48 now lets divide it by 2...24.

24 + 104 = 128

Step-by-step explanation:

First, I split the Square from the Traingle

Second, I did base times height which equaled (104)

Third, I found the area of the triangle by base times height divided by 2.(24)

Lastly, I added the figures up which equaled 128
