HEY GUYS HELP ME ON THIS ONE PLS DO IT FAST

Answer 1

The answer is 72

Explanation:

The formula to find the area of a trapezoid

`A= (1)/(2)h(b_(1) + b_2{} )`

First, we can add the bottom base together

5 + 8 + 3 =
`16_(2)`

We know that the height of the trapezoid is 6 and base1 is 8

`A= (1)/(2)6(16 + 8)`

`A=(1)/(2)6(24)`

`A=3(24)`

`A=72`

OR

Find the area of the two triangles

`A=(1)/(2)5(6)\\\\A=5(3)\\\\A=15\\\\`
`A=(1)/(2)3(6)\\\\A=3(3)\\\\A=9\\`

15 + 9 = 24

For the area of the rectangle

6 x 8 = 48

48 + 24 = 72
