Answer:

shape AREA= 35cm^2

Explanation:

you should know that this shape is a combination of triangle and trapezoid. therefore you have to find the area of each shape and add them.

A=h/2(b1 + b2) for trapezoid

A=2/2((4+4)+4)

A=1*12

A=12cm^2

A=bh/2. for TRIANGLE

A=1/2((4+4)*5.75)

A=1/2(46)

A=23cm^2

shape AREA= triangle AREA + trapezoid AREA

shape AREA=12cm^2 + 23cm^2

shape AREA= 35cm^2
