The total area = 850 sq ft

The sub area of the square = 100 sq ft and the trapezoid = 750 sq ft.

Explanation:

Given:

The diagram consist of two figure, a trapezoid ( green border)

To find:

The total area.

Formula

The area of square = side × side sq unit

The area of trapezoid = sum of the parallel sides × height

Now,

The area of square = 10 × 10 sq unit = 100 sq ft

The area of trapezoid = (10 + 20) × 25 sq unit

= 750 sq ft

So, the total area can be given as = 100 + 750 sq ft

= 850 sq ft
