Answer: 300 ft^2

Explanation:

First, find the area of the rectangle on the bottom:

Area of a rectangle = length * width = 18 * 12 = 216

Now, find the area of the trapezoid:

Area of a trapezoid = (base 1 + base 2) / 2 * height → (10 + 18) / 2 * 6 = 84

Add these together: 216 + 84 = 300 ft^2 :)
