Answer:

428 square ft

Explanation:

to do this you can break the shape up into multiple pieces

you can do it this way

the top left part of the polygon could be one shape

9 by 10

this is because if the left side is 23 and part of the left side is 13 the leftover part is 10

then the bottom is 13 by 26

then you multiply and add them together

(9 * 10) + (13 * 26) = 90 + 338

then you add

90 + 338 = 428

the answer is 428 square ft
