Answer:
34 square units
Explanation:
The figure can be considered to be a trapezoid with a rectangle removed.
The area of the trapezoid is ...
A = (1/2)(b1 +b2)h
A = (1/2)(10 +6)(5) = 40
The area of the rectangle is ...
A = LW
A = (3)(2) = 6
Then the area of the shaded portion of the figure is ...
shaded area = trapezoid area - rectangle area
= 40 - 6 = 34 . . . square units
