Answer:

141 square inches

Explanation:

Area of a triangle: Base*Height*1/2

Area of a trapezoid: Height * (Base1 +Base2) / 2

Triangle Base = 6

Triangle Height = 8

6*8*1/2 = 24 square inches

Trapezoid Height = 9

Trapezoid Base1 = 16

Trapezoid Base2 = 10

9*(16+10) / 2 = 117 square inches

Total = Area of triangle + Area of trapezoid

Total = 24 + 117 = 141 square inches
