There are 3 different parts so let’s find the area that f those three separately and combine at the end.

For the small rectangle on the top (1),
Breadth (b) = 3 in
Length (l) = 4 in (Cause on the other side we see 11 in- 7 in = 4 in as well)
So,
Area of (1) = l*b
=4*3
=12 in,,

For the big rectangle (2),
b= 7 in
l = 10 + 3 = 13 in
So,
Area of (2) = 7*13
=91 in,,

And now for the triangle (3),
Since it is right angled,
Base=4 in
Height=Perpendicular = 3+3+1 = 7 in
So,
Area of (3)= 4*7
=28 in,,



Finally total area would be (1)+(2)+(3)
=12 in+91 in+28 in
=131 in,,
