Answer:
The correct answer is choice C.
Explanation:
To find the area of the arrow, we must add together the areas of the rectangle and the triangle that make up the arrow. The rectangle has a length of 10 inches and a width of 4 inches, and the triangle has a base of 8 inches and a height of 2 inches. Using this information, we can plug numbers into the following formula:
Area of arrow = area of rectangle + area of triangle
Area of arrow = (10*4)+(1/2*8*2)
Area of arrow = 40 inches squared + 8 inches squared
Area of arrow = 48 inches squared
Therefore, the correct answer is option C, 48 square units (in this case, inches).
Hope this helps!
