Answer:

140.5 square yards

Explanation:

split the triangle from the shape: 8+7=15yd

area of triangle = 1/2 x base x height

= 1/2 x 5 x 15

=37.5 square yards

split the rectangle from the shape: 7+2=9yd

area of rectangle = length x width

= 11 x 9

= 99 square yards

split the square from the shape

area of square = n squared

= 2^2

= 4 square yards

add them all up: 37.5+99+4

= 140.5 square yards is the final answer

my bad if you can't read the working out in the picture
