20 square inches
24 square inches
32 square inches

Answer 1

24 square inches

Explanation:

You would do 5*2 to get the area of one triangle and their are 4 triangles. So you would multiply 5*2 for each and divide it by 2 because that's how you find the area of a triangle. You would get 20. Then for the square you would multiply 2*2 to get 4. Add those together to get 24.
