so: to calculate the area of a triangle is equal to (bxh)/2 and for the trapezoid is ((a+b)/2)xh
so for the triangle part we need to substitute each part for the formula (6x8)/2 which is equal to= 24inch^2. While for the trapezoid substituted would end up like this: ((16+10)/2)(9) which equals to 117 inch^2
yo get the total area we need to add both of them and it would end up being 117inch^2 + 24inch^= 141 inch^2
