Answer:164

Explanation:

step 1: divide the irregular shape into regular shapes in this case Triangle and two rectangles

step 2: Calculate the individual areas for the shapes the area of the rectangle is (128) because the sides 16 and 8 add up to 128 as area.For the smaller rectangle the area is (32) since 8 times 4 is equal to 32 and lastly for the triangle the area is four since the base of 2 times the height of 4 equals 8 and 8 divided by two is 4 so the are of the triangle is (4)

step 3: Combine all the areas 128+32+4=64 therefore the area for the irregular figure is (164)

Answer:

164.

Explanation:

We can break this shape into a rectangle and a trapezoid.

Area for a rectangle is l x w, or in this case, 8 x 16.

8 x 16 = 128, so the rectangle’s area is 128.

Area for a trapezoid is ((a+b)/2)h.

We do not have all the info we need to solve this equation yet. We need the measurement of two sides of the trapezoid. This is 16 - 12, or 4. The other side of the trapezoid we need to find is 16 - 8, or 8.

Now we can plug in the numbers.

((8 + 10)/2)4

(18/2)4

9 x 4

36

Now we can add up the areas of both shapes to find the answer.

36 + 128 = 164, so the answer is 164.
