Let's just count squares,

I get 9 whole squares and 3 half squares, 9+3/2 = 21/2

Answer: 21/2 or 10.5 square units

Check:

It's also a 2x3 rectangle plus a 3x3 right triangle

area = 2x3 + (1/2)3x3 = 6 + 9/2 = 21/2 good

Answer:

21 units^2

Explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is found by

A = 1/2 (b1+b2)h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases and h is the height

b1 = 10 b2 = 4 and the height is 6

Notice the scale factor on the axis

A = 1/2(10+4) * 6

= 1/2 *14*6

=21 units^2
