Answer:

45.4 in is the answer :)

Explanation:

you have to split up the shape. I decided to do it into three different parts one long at the bottom with side lengths of 8 and 4. a smaller rectangle at the top left with measurements of 5.3 and 4, (8-4=4) and the triangle which is 4 by 2.7 (8-5.3). You then find the area of each individual shape, for the rectangles you just multiply getting 32 and 21.2 for the smaller one and then find the triangle by using the formula 1/2b*h which gets you 5.4 then you add the three areas together getting 45.4 hope this helps!
