Answer:

Area of the figure =
$240\,units^2$

Explanation:

Area of the figure = Area of the triangle + Area of the Rectangle

Area of triangle is:

$=(1)/(2) * Base * Height\\\\$

$Base=20\,units\\Height=4\,units$

Area is :

$=(1)/(2)* 20* 4\\\\ =10* 4\\\\=40\,units^2$

Area of the rectangle=
Length* Width

$Length=20\,units\\Width=10 \,units$

Area :

$=20* 10\\\\=200 \,units^2$

Total area of the figure=
$40+200\\$

=
$240\,units^2$
