Answer:

264ft^2

Explanation:

First find the area of the body of the house which is the rectangle.

18*12=216

Then find the are of the triangle or roof given by 1/2(b)(h)

1/2(12)(10)=60

Then Find the area of the window which is 3*4=12 and subtract 12 from 60 to find the area of the roof with the window.=48

Add 48 the roof and 216 the rectangle to get total painted area. =264 ft^2
