Answer:

I believe the answer is 152 ft

Explanation:

On the side, you would find the area of the square (8x5=40). Then, you would find the area of the triangular front (6x4=24 divded by 2 so it's 12). There are two sides of each, so 24+80=104. Then, you dfind the aarea of the bottom square (6x8=48) and add them all together to make 152
